Conservation Center, Russell Wildlife Area
Come out to the conservation center at the Russell Wildlife Area for a fun family event from 6:30-7:30 pm on Friday, December 9th. Participants will listen to Jan Brett’s story “The Mitten” and decorate a very special pair of mittens. One mitten will be placed on the tree in the conservation center and the other mitten can go home with you.
Donate a pair of warm mittens and bring them to this event! All donated mittens will be given to a local charity to help keep people warm this winter. Mitten-shaped cookies will be available to decorate for your refreshment. Yum! This event is for all ages. Please pre-register by calling the Mahaska County Conservation Board at (641)673-9327.
