Get Outdoors and join in the only Butterfly Count in Clermont County!

Styled after Christmas Bird Counts, all butterflies in a 15 mile circle centered around East Fork State Park are counted.

With so much territory, we need you!

Meet at the Corps Visitor Center located on Slade Road at 9 am on Saturday, June 10.

We will break into groups led by the veteran butterfliers who are happy to share their knowledge and visit locations filled with flowers and butterflies.

Bring water, snacks and a packable lunch if you plan to stay past lunch time.

Also bring field guides and close-focus binoculars if you have them, but not nets.

The group will gather for refreshments and a final tally at the Visitor Center about 4:00 pm.

This count is sponsored by the North American Butterfly Association, an organization that promotes awareness of butterfly conservation, observation and education.

A $3.00 participation fee is collected by NABA.

For more information about this program and to register, please call the Corps Park Ranger at (513) 797-6081.

The Corps Visitor Center is located at 2185 Slade Road just off State Route 222 about five miles south of Batavia.

Note: if you use Map Quest or GPS receiver, the Visitor Center is located about 1 ½ miles further on Slade Road, past the Main Dam and Corps Boat Ramp.
