Sandy Creek Nature Center has been providing effective and engaging environmental education for 50 years now, and to celebrate, the staff has an entire year of events and activities planned. From now until the end of the year, visitors can enjoy a writer’s talk, an art exhibition, a youth art contest and more. Everything kicks off with the Golden Anniversary Celebration and Open House, an afternoon party featuring special guests, speakers, activities and environmental education. A roll out event for Athentic Brewing Co.’s new Trail Hopper Ale, a lightly hoppy pale ale that will donate a portion of proceeds to SCNC, Inc., will follow with a social hour and trivia contest on Mar. 24 from 6–9 p.m. The year will culminate in the burying of a time capsule, to be dug up 50 years from now.
