Hudson Community Services: Community Education, School Age Care, Summer Programs

The monarch migration, one of nature's greatest feats, starts right here in Wisconsin! Monitoring the monarch's impressive flight begins with people like you. Become a citizen scientist when you help Carpenter Nature Center catch, tag and release monarchs. We will also learn about the monarch life cycle and take a more detailed look at what it takes to fly to Mexico.

Canine Good Citizen (CGC) is a certification program that evaluates dogs in simulated everyday situations in a relaxed, noncompetitive atmosphere. Dogs that pass the CGC test are deemed to be reliable family and community members and will receive a certificate from the American Kennel Club (includes mix breeds). If you are thinking of doing therapy work, we recommend this course as the first step in the training process. Family members are encouraged to attend including kids 10 & older. For dogs who have completed More Manners course or an advanced obedience course. No retractable leashes or pinch/prong collars. Dogs should have a buckle collar or harness with 6-foot leash. Bring lots of small treats and water.
