Necedah National Wildlife Refuge Week Activities – CANCELED

Due to a lack of appropriations funding and the government shutdown, the Necedah National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center is closed, and most staff are furloughed. As a result of this, all activities and presentations scheduled for October 15-18 are canceled.  Even if the budget is resolved early next week, it is too short notice for our partners, suppliers, attendees, and volunteers. Thanks for your understanding.

In the meantime, while bathrooms are closed, the Friends of Necedah NWR has hired a porta-potty that will be situated in the main parking lot across from the handicapped spaces.  Even though the center is closed, from sunrise to sunset, people can enjoy hiking the trails, birding, photography, and enjoying the beautiful nature at the refuge.
