Wetland Walk at Sheldon Lake State Park

March 16 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm

Interested in learning more about our wetlands around the Houston region? Join our wetland team for one of our Wetland Walks. This wetland walk happening on  on Saturday, March 16th at Sheldon Lake State Park, guided by Andrew Sipocz, a natural resources coordinator with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Andrew has spent over 20 years restoring the park’s coastal prairies and wetlands, using innovative methods that combine history, biology, and archaeology to recreate the original landscape. His method was a driving force for the restoration of Sheldon Lake State Park. As we explore the park, Andrew will share his knowledge of the restoration process and the rich biodiversity that has returned to this vital ecosystem.

Register for the Wetland Walk.
