Event details

Get out this spring and search for the woodchucks in Will County! We’ll take a hike and explore McKinley Woods – Kerry Sheridan Grove while we look for signs of woodchucks. These furry creatures have been seen all over the preserve, so maybe we’ll even spot a few! As we explore, we’ll learn fun facts about the woodchuck and why they call this preserve home.
