In the past Vikki Rawe form the Kenton County Conservation District has led a hike that will have participants investigating stream bed, stream banks, and everything in between! Using seines and dip nets, all aquatic life will be examined: insects, salamanders, fish, frogs, and maybe even a turtle or water snake! Wear old shoes, waterproof shoes, boots, or waders. And bring a towel ~ just in case!

The Creek Walk is for scouts of any rank with a curious mind and who don’t mind the possibility of getting a little wet!  And as with any scouting event, families are welcome to participate.  This event is usually held in Banklick Creek at Pioneer Park, but other creek options exist.

Pioneer Park is easy to find! From I-275, take Exit 80 (Covington/Independence) and go south on KY Hwy 17 about one mile. Go to the main entrance to the park. You will see the park on your right before you come to the entrance. Turn right into the park, then turn right again, go passed Shelterhouse 1, and look for us near the Iron Bridge.
