The Carbon County Environmental Education Center in Summit Hill is preparing for several February activities.

For more information on the center’s upcoming activities, visit www.carboneec.org.

Eagles Pep Rally

On Saturday at 5 p.m., the center will hold a “Fly, Eagles, Fly!” pep rally to cheer the home team on to the Super Bowl.

Outdoors, attendees will meet “Rennie,” the center’s non-releasable bald eagle, hear her story, and learn about eagles in the wild, then offered light refreshments indoors.

The event is free and open to all ages, with no registration necessary.

CCEEC members who have not yet renewed for 2025 will be offered the chance at that time.

Bird Box Sale

Throughout the month, the center is holding its annual Bird Box Sale, with assembled boxes or kits available for purchase. The boxes are designed to attract bluebirds, wrens, chickadees and other small cavity nesting birds.

“These are smart additions to any backyard,” said CCEEC Chief Naturalist Susan Gallagher. “You can attract any of a number of species no matter what kind of habitat you have nearby. And all these birds prey on insects. In summer, a single bluebird can eat about 2,000 insects.”

Call or stop in for pricing or to pick up a box.

Yarn Tuesdays

Weekly throughout February and March, CCEEC also offers “Yarn Tuesdays,” with those at every interest level invited to learn new knitting and crocheting skills in a relaxed, informal atmosphere.

Participants may use the supplied materials, or bring their own projects to work on during the evening. Classes are held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. with light refreshments. A $15 donation covers all sessions.
