MDC invites women to hike Fellows Lake Trail on Oct. 8

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – Comfortable temperatures, an abundance of wildlife activity, and the arrival of fall colors make fall an excellent time for a hike.

With that in mind, the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) Springfield Conservation Nature Center will conduct a women’s hike on Oct. 8 at the Fellows Lake Trail. This five-mile hike, which will be from 9 a.m.-1:30 p.m., is for ages 14 and up. Girls ages 14-17 must be accompanied by an adult. People can register at:
