Critters haunt the trails of Riveredge

There were a few scary creatures haunting the trails of Riveredge Nature Center in the Town of Saukville Friday night, but it was mostly critters like a large monarch butterfly (top photo) and woodland animals portrayed by Toddianna Kraemer Curtiss and Michellelena Kraemer (right) that greeting children and their parents who celebrated Halloween by taking part in the center’s annual Trails and Treats event. Among those were Laura and Rick Wollersheim and their children Landon, 7, Ryland, 6, and Elodie, 4 (left). Riveredge mixes Halloween fun with education by teaching children about the real denizens of the wild as they walk the center’s trails.                                                                                                            Photos by Sam Arendt
