    The 14th Annual Chagrin Valley

    wear long pants and meet at NorthChagrinNatureCenter. Participants

    program in the morning or in the afternoon or the entire day.



     



    Registration and a $3 fee per person (for report publication)
    are required.



     



    In recent years, spotters found 36 different types of
    butterflies, including tiger swallowtails, monarchs, striped
    hairstreaks, cabbage white, and even a European skipper.



     



    North Chagrin Nature Centeris located off
    Buttermilk Falls Parkway, off the Sunset Lane entrance of North
    Chagrin Reservation, off SOM Center Road/Route 91 in
    MayfieldVillage.
