Event Description

This year’s movie series theme is “Creepy Critters of the Cache”. This month’s misunderstood creepy critter is insects. Ever wonder why bugs don't grow big, how crickets hear with their knees, and why the termite queen doesn't wander far from her 5 million subjects and her eight-foot-high skyscraper palace? Viewers will learn the answers to these questions and many more. This month we will also have a drawing for a free Cache River Wetlands t-shirt and light refreshments will be provided.
For more information, please call the Cache River Wetlands Center.
