4-H Days at Legends Ranch

4-H Days at Legends Ranch returned for the second summer on May 28, July 8, and July 9! 4-H youth from Lake and Newaygo Counties enjoyed a day at Legends Ranch in Bitely exploring the nature trails, observing the wildlife, trying out the archery range, and of course, fishing for bluegill, perch and bass which was the highlight of the day for many of the kids! In addition, the youth had the opportunity to learn how to leather stamp and build duck boxes as well as tour the Wildlife Center at Legends Ranch, 24,000 square foot facility displaying nearly 3,000 animal exhibits from around the world. The center offers a unique opportunity to learn about wildlife and conservation. 

4-H Days at Legends Ranch was made possible through a grant from the Gerber Foundation and a donation from Legends Ranch.  For more information about the Newaygo County 4-H Program, contact Laurie Platte Breza, 4-H Program Coordinator, at [email protected] or by calling the MSU Extension office at 231-928-1056.
