From buzzing bees, singing birds and flowers unfurling, Newman Wetlands Center is coming to life.
The wetlands area gives residents an opportunity to immerse themselves in nature via the half-mile trail and Learning Center. The center offers numerous exhibits from rocks to animals.
A picnic pavilion offers a place to rest and enjoy a meal. However, no grills, balloons or plastic decor is permitted.
