Tudek Park: Free Guided Outings

Tudek Park: Free Guided Outings

Look for the Centred Outdoors flag in the 2nd/rear parking lot.

Join us on this week's Guided Outings when members of the Master Gardeners will give us a tour of the Snetsinger Butterfly Garden!

Tom Tudek Memorial Park, the most frequently visited park in the Centre region, is home to the Snetsinger Butterfly Garden Habitat (SBG), an educational site of approximately 3 acres located in the northwest portion of the park. It’s a diverse ecosystem with over 40 species of resident butterflies, many native bees and birds, and hundreds of native plants that serve as food and shelter for pollinators and other wildlife.

One of ClearWater Conservancy’s first projects, Tom Tudek Memorial Park was a proposed site for a shopping mall in the 1970’s before citizens organized to prevent its development. The Tudek Family generously donated much of the land for the park in 1990, and today this 91-acre area includes a community garden, dog park, small horse farm, playground and pavilions, 61 acres of passive land, and the 3-acre Snetsinger Butterfly Garden.
