Come join us at Fort Rodd Hill and Fisgard Lighthouse National Historic Sites for a “Fit to Serve” program with costumed heritage interpreters. We’ll also have time to discover native plants & wildlife, asking questions to a free-ranging guide at the Garry Oak Learning Meadow. Bring a picnic lunch if you’d like. 

Last year at FRH in June, many of us were surprised and delighted to see orcas, nesting swallows and chicks, a myriad of sea stars, jellyfish and hunting eagles. May we be so lucky again!
