Burlington, Iowa — Get ready for a wild and wonderful nighttime adventure through the waters of Flint Creek! On Wednesday, August 13, Starr’s Cave Nature Center invites you to step into the magic of the natural world after sunset during its Night Creek Stomp program, taking place from 8:30 PM to 10:00 PM.
This free, family-friendly event offers a rare opportunity to explore the creek by headlamp, where shadows dance on the water and the nighttime chorus of frogs and insects sets the scene for an unforgettable experience.
Participants are encouraged to wear water shoes and weather-appropriate clothing, and to bring a headlamp if they have one — although a limited number will be available to borrow. Guided by nature experts, you’ll wade through the cool creek bed and discover the vibrant, hidden life that thrives after dark.
Watch for the glow of fireflies, listen for the calls of nocturnal animals, and learn about the secret nightlife of the forest in a program designed to ignite curiosity in adventurers of all ages.
No RSVP is needed — just show up and be ready to explore. For more information, call Starr’s Cave Nature Center at (319) 753-5808.
