Families meet the outdoors during adventure day

Families can discover how the great outdoors exists in their own backyards during “Outdoor Adventure Day,” from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Saturday, April 30, in Asheville. The event is being put on by the N.C. Arboretum but will be held at the Asheville Outdoor Center on Amboy Road in West Asheville.  

The event is designed to introduce families to fun and low-cost outdoor entertainment and activities offered by the Arboretum and Asheville Outdoor Center. Children and adults will learn about local wildlife through live animal presentations. Arboretum staff will lead nature walks, as well as geocaching activities and make-and-take crafts. Visitors can enjoy some friendly competition through nature-centered field games, complete with prizes.
