Outdoor Events in September 2018

Posted on August 30, 2018November 11, 2018 By Karen Coker No Comments on Outdoor Events in September 2018

Outdoor lovers and nature enthusiasts have several outdoor events to choose from this month.  So check out the activities below: plant swap, marksmanship challenge, poker run, fishing tournament, hunter education, and even a quilting show with nature-themed quilts. There’s also training for teens for the written driving permit test; hey, one day they’ll drive outside (we hope!) or drive to fishing spots and marksmanship practice.  Besides, the classes are next week, and people need to know.

Also be sure to check with the host organizations for more information (e.g., policies for participation and possible schedule changes).

Later on, those with additional interests might like to see PB Junction’s other posts that cover live music; art exhibits; and a variety of activities (genealogy, tinkerfest, and more) for adults, teens, and children.  But for now, here are some outdoor activities, starting with the teen driving permit prep.
