When: August 30, 2009 1:00 PM

Where:
River Center at Lockhouse 8
C&O Canal National Historical Park
Cabin John, MD 20818

Join Kevin Munroe as he takes us on a journey along the C&O Canal towpath to explore the life of dragon and damselflies.

The River Center is open Saturdays and Sundays from May 3 through October 18 from 10 am ‘til 2 pm for tours of the lockhouse and interactive exhibits. Inside the River Center, the Conservancy installed a new exhibit, “Backyard to the Bay,” that connects what happens on the land and the health of the Potomac River and the Chesapeake Bay. Visitors are guided by the Potomac Conservancy’s volunteer docents who lead tours, answer questions and discuss the historical and cultural significance of the C&O Canal and the Potomac River to the regional economy and the local quality of life.
