SUMMARY:Monarch Tagging Demo: Cacapon Resort State Park Nature Center
DESCRIPTION:September is peak Monarch butterfly migration month\, when monarchs migrate south to Mexico over a 2\,500 mile journey.

If caught\, the butterfly will be tagged with a small adhesive sticker in efforts to track their migration to Mexico. Most importantly\, you will learn how to contribute to Monarch conservation! \n\n\n\nSeptember 26th at 1-3 p.m. \n\n\n\nThis is a free\, family-friendly event with no preregistration required.
