The Put-in-Bay StoryWalk is located at the Dodge Woods Preserve.

New story on the Put-in-Bay StoryWalk! All ages will love to walk the trail to read the story of Elmer, an elephant that thinks he doesn’t fit in. This delightful story by David McKee teaches us all it’s OK to be different. Take time to enjoy the migrating birds and wildflowers, especially the buttercups, as you enjoy the story.

Special thanks to Lance Saunders for his continued support of the StoryWalk book installation and Karen Wilhelm of the Erie Islands Library.

We are excited to see the progress on the new walking path being installed by Park District employee Chris Helman at the Middle Bass Island Forested Wetland Preserve-Dieperink Tract! It has been a a tough job with all the downed dead green ash trees on site, but will be a beautiful place to enjoy a walk in the woods and birds by late next summer! This is being paid for with proceeds from the Lake Erie Islands Conservancy’s Middle Bass Music Festival! Watch for opening and dedication! Thank you Chris!
