WNWR conducted this date their Fall Open House Celebration as part of the National Wildlife Refuge Week nationwide. Events included the "shelling" of corn, a corn maze, quiet walks along the Visitor Center trails, wildlife observations at the Center's Observation Building, demonstrations of flint knapping & arrowhead making, archery, youth fishing, Raptor education by the Alabama 4-H Center, and events for toddlers as well as the older kids. Hot food and refreshments were made available so the general public could enjoy the outdoors. Even though rains and showers came and went it was a good day for staff, volunteers, and those attending this annual event.
