Fun with Frogs in Florida: A Save the Frogs Day Event   Children and adults are invited to spend a fun, casual evening in a beautiful Florida setting learning about frogs and their importance to Florida and the rest of the world.  This Save the Frogs Day event is Friday, April 29 from 5-8 pm at Camp Bayou and includes frog activities, a presentation and night hike.  Snacks and beverages will be available for purchase.   Pre-registration is appreciated at www.WanderingWhimsy.com.  A suggested donation of $5 per person will equally benefit Camp Bayou and Save the Frogs, America's first and only public charity dedicated exclusively to amphibian conservation.    Contact SavingFrogsFL@verizon.net or (813) 469-0472 with questions.  Visit www.CampBayou.org for directions.   Camp Bayou is neither a campground nor a summer camp. It was an RV park before the County's ELAP program purchased the land but it is now open for day use only, open to the general public. Through volunteers, donations, membership and grants, the RCDF offers pre-scheduled programs to schools, youth groups, adult groups and families plus it's open from Thursday- Saturday from 9am-2pm for passive recreational pursuits such as wildlife watching, nature photography and trail walks. General admission is still FREE.   The Camp Bayou Outdoor Learning Center is a public- private partnership between the non-profit Ruskin Community Development Foundation, Inc. (RCDF) and Hillsborough County Parks, Recreation and Conservation. Camp Bayou is located 3 miles south of SR674 at the end of 24th St SE in Ruskin. More information is on the web at www.campbayou.org or call 813-641-8545. ### Dolly Cummings Homepage: www.campbayou.org Blog: campbayou.blogspot.com Follow: twitter.com/campbayou Cause-shopping: www.igive.com/campbayou And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair. ~Kahlil Gibran
