2017
Every year since 2015, WACF has hosted an October trail walk that we call FallTastic. The three WACF trails (about three miles total) are decorated for the season and interesting educational signs are posted. We offer light refreshments and a crackling fire in the Ruddell pavilion at the Education Center on SR 13 (one mile south of Syracuse). This event is free to anyone in the community and our trails are pet friendly.
Join us on Saturday, July 27 at 10:30 AM for our annual Lake Celebration & Brunch. This year we will have a special update on the WINS water study that will be presented by Dr. Jerry Sweeten. The brunch is courtesy of our good friends from The Channel Marker restaurant. Hope to see you there!
Every Wednesday morning (9-11:30) in July (10, 17, 14 & 31) we’ll be holding special fun and educational programs for elementary age kids. Join us for one or all. Admission is free and no registration is required. More details HERE.

Please take a few minutes to listen to Tom Yoder explain the importance of this property to Lake Wawasee.
WACF is undertaking a new and comprehensive wetland water quality study that will allow us to focus our resources on the most critical hot spots. Read more….
