The Ouabache Land Conservancy (a 501(c)3 land trust) invites everyone to the 4th annual "Jackson-Schnyder Day" hike at Jackson-Schnyder Nature Preserve on Saturday, August 20th from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. This hike celebrates the legacy and land ethic of Dr. Marion Jackson and Julius Schnyder, the preserve's former owners and namesakes. OLC Board members Phil Cox, Marty Jones, and Claudia Cozadd will lead hikers on the Julius Trail around the 4-acre tallgrass prairie; and then on the Marion Trail through the woodland to "Crown Point" sharing the importance of protecting the prairie and woodland plants, birds, butterflies, trees, and controlling invasive species encountered along the way. The address of the preserve is 1121 W. Concannon Ave., West Terre Haute. To get there, take Hwy 150 to St. Mary’s Ave and turn west, drive past the St. Mary-of-the-Woods College main entrance continuing west and turn left on Bloomtown Road, go under the railroad and turn right on Concannon Ave. Just past the bridge is the roadside entrance (on the right) to the preserve.
