Leave No Trace 101

Smeck Park
7395 Basil Rd
Baltimore, OH  43105

Take only pictures; leave only footprints.

Have you noticed a path off the main trail, trampled wildflowers, litter in the parks, or people feeding wildlife?  Learn the basics of leaving no trace and why that is so important!  Then, venture out to the trails for a two-mile hike with our Education Specialist.  Wear comfortable hiking shoes because the trails are uneven and there is a long set of stairs.

Free, family-friendly event.

Where to Meet
Cruit House, the log-framed house.  Keep in mind pets are not allowed inside Cruit House.  Even though pets are allowed in Smeck Park (see more about pets, below) we ask that you do not bring pets to this particular program.
