Tupper Lake, NY – Wondering what to do after the presents are opened and the kids are done playing with their new toys?  Bring the entire family over to The Wild Center, open the week between Christmas and New Year.  There is something for every member of the family – otter encounters, feature films, screenings of the BBC ‘Life’ series and the free use of snowshoes for exploring the trails on your own or on a guided naturalist hike.

Many local food pantries are low on supplies after the holidays.  Bring a non-perishable item for the Tupper Lake Community Food Pantry and receive $2 off your admission.  Items needed include canned fruit and vegetables, pasta, coffee and tea, soap, tooth brushes and tooth paste.
