If bugs fascinate, not bug, you, you may want to visit Minnekhada Regional Park in Coquitlam on Aug. 20.
From forest to pond, participants will search for bugs both big and small. They'll net aquatic snails, beetles, and damselfly naiads on a pond dip, roll a log to find centipedes and wood bugs.
A park interpreter will lead the walk from 10 a.m. to noon and share knowledge about insects, spiders and other invertebrates.
Participants will meet at the Quarry Road parking lot and are asked to wear rubber boots or shoes that can get muddy.
The program is for people six years and older. Cost is $16 per child/adult pair. To register, call 604-927-4386 and quote barcode 358285. This program is co-sponsored by Metro Vancouver Parks and Coquitlam Parks, Recreation and Culture Services.
