In celebration of Nebraska Moth Week, Nebraska Extension Educator for Urban Entomology, Kait Chapman, will lead a moth lighting bioblitz at Schramm Park State Recreation Area. Bring a flashlight, search for moths at the light trap, and learn about moths and other nocturnal insects in Nebraska. We will use the iNaturalist app to document the species we encounter and collect data about nocturnal insects in the park. Data collected during this event will contribute to the Biodiversity in Nebraska State Parks initiative.

This is a free program that will be held at the park shelter next to Pond A. We will meet in the parking lot of the Schramm Education Center at 8:30 p.m. and walk about five minutes along a paved, flat trail to the park shelter. If you have a state park vehicle permit, you can park next to the park shelter.

A state park vehicle permit is not required in the Schramm Education Center parking lot. Questions about the event can be directed to Jen Ruyle, Outdoor Education Specialist, at 402-332-5022 or Jennifer.ruyle@nebraska.gov.
