Free Field Trip Offered To Local Youth By Young Outdoorsmen United

Kids, ages 7-15, may register to attend the Bass Pro Wonders of Wildlife National Museum and Aquarium in Springfield on Tuesday, June 19. The field trip is hosted by Young Outdoorsmen United and includes a free combination pass to the wildlife galleries and aquarium, lunch and transportation.

Wonders of Wildlife National Museum and Aquarium is the largest, most immersive conservation attraction in the world. Unprecedented in scale and scope, Wonders of Wildlife is larger than the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. With 35,000 live fish, mammals, reptiles, amphibians and birds. It contains more than one-and-a-half miles of trails through authentic, immersive habitats and features 1.5 million gallons of freshwater and saltwater aquariums.

The wildlife galleries are state of the art 4-D dioramas that surround guests with the sights and sounds of some of the planet's most extreme wildlife habitats, ranging from the chill of the Alps to the dry sun of the African Savannah and much more.

Deadline to register to attend is Sunday, June 17, by calling Young Outdoorsmen United at 417-439-8594.
