Wild Bear Nature Center celebrated another milestone toward completing the long-time vision of their permanent home located on the SE corner of Mud Lake Open Space. On Sunday, Wild Bear’s Board of Directors, staff, volunteers and donors convened on Wild Bear’s 5 acres to acknowledge the work and dedication of volunteers and the generosity of donors who have moved this vision forward.
