Prairie Burning, Trade Show, Etc.


Over the last several weeks, the prairie has been burned and is turning a brilliant green, especially with our April showers this week. More birds are arriving daily and the bison herd is getting back to their frisky spring/summer selves!

If you are going to the Sutherland Trade Show on Saturday, April 17th, stop at the Prairie Heritage Center table from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Up for grabs in a drawing will be one of our new Dog Creek camping coupon books, which will give you 10 nights of camping fees and is a $100 value. A baby bison stuffed animal will be given away as well.

Looking for something to do on Sunday, April 18th? Come to the Center at 1:00 p.m. for PLANT A TREE DAY. You will learn about Arbor Day and much more! Native tree seeds will be planted in pots for use in our public areas. Participants will have an opportunity to take one home too.

The latest edition of the Little Sioux Wanderings is in production at this very moment and will be mailed/e-mailed next week. You will want to check out all the upcoming events!
