Join us this Saturday, April 23, from 10 – noon to celebrate the opening of the Monarch Butterfly Waystation at the South Pasadena nature park (South Pasadena – Arroyo Seco Woodland and Wildlife Park). Volunteers have been hard at work in the park and there are lots of beautiful flowers, birds, lizards, insects, and of course, butterflies.
There will be food, crafts, games and outdoor fun as we welcome monarch butterflies into the park. Bring a camera and binoculars, dress in play clothes, and prepare to relax and have fun at South Pasadena’s only habitat park.
