Spring Migration Mania

KEY WEST – Migration Mania will be taking place at the Key West Tropical Forest & Botanical Garden on Saturday, April 1, from 10 am to 2 pm. Join us for our huge annual celebration of Spring. Migration Mania is the education department’s only fundraiser, which helps keep our state standard aligned field trips free for Monroe County students. 3,500 students from first through ninth grade participated in our free Living Lab STEM program last school year and we strive to increase that number this year!

The day features our famous egg hunts (three age groups with 6,000 eggs) games, crafts, face painting and more. Attendees will also enjoy environmental education booths, raffles with great prizes plus food and beverages available for purchase. All children will receive a raffle ticket for fun, kid-friendly prizes, and additional raffle tickets may be purchased for prizes ranging from gift certificates to local restaurants and fun water activities and for the grand prize, a bicycle.
