Event Description

The Volusia County Explore Volusia program invites you to hop on the eco-buggy with Education Specialist Tommy Nordmann and Environmental Specialist Holly Giles and tour the western side of Longleaf Pine Preserve. We’ll stop at the pavilion near the campsite to enjoy lunch and listen to a talk by Holly on the Be Floridian Now and Adopt-A-Trail programs. We'll also be joined by Ashley Jackson, a bear biologist for FWC, and learn about Florida black bears.
