Explore Outdoors! – a collaboration between Blue Hill Heritage Trust, Downeast Audubon and Great Pond Mountain Conservation Trust – is bringing a special pop rock concert for kids to the Blue Hill Public Library on Wednesday, June 20th at 3:30 PM. Bee Parks and the Hornets is an indie pop-rock band based out of Mount Desert Island. They perform high-energy shows that combine original songs, puppetry, and audience participation to inspire young people to get up and move — both with their feet and in their communities.
Through their interactive songs, they teach kids about the biology of bees and other insects, and help people to understand the important role insects play in the environment. Julianne Taylor, education coordinator of Explore Outdoors!, will bring an “observation bee hive” so kids can observe real honeybees at work.
This program is co-sponsored by the library and Explore Outdoors! There is no charge and everyone is welcome. For more information call the Library at 374-5515.
