Learn about the importance of bats and why the Helderbergs are a nationally significant home for bats and bat research. Presented by the staff at the Thacher Nature Center.
The Emma Treadwell Thacher Nature Center opened in July 2001 and is located in Thompson's Lake Campground at Thacher State Park. The center offers year-round educational programs for school groups, youth organizations, clubs, and the general public.
