Celebrate the night sky with your Junior Rangers! We will have astronomy exhibits on display in

booklets to earn a commemorative patch! In addition, we are hosting a special guided moon
hike beginning at 8:00 pm along the Yellow River Boardwalk! Be sure to dress warmly. Red lights
and headlamps ONLY.

you would like reserved for the event.

Effigy Mounds National Monument preserves a large concentration of mounds, including many
Effigy Mounds in the shape of animals. The 14 miles of hiking trails provide an insight into the
social, spiritual, and ceremonial life of the Native peoples who inhabited and revered this land
for thousands of years. For more information, visit the park’s website at www.nps.gov/efmo or
