“Ding” Darling Day – 36th Annual

Join us to celebrate the annual “Ding” Darling Day, along with Earth Day 2025. This year’s family-centric event once again will be making the “great migration” across the Causeway to Lakes Park in Fort Myers to bring the Refuge to our local communities and a wider audience. The move is part of a larger Refuge System-wide Urban Initiative.

Admission to Wildlife Drive will be free to all that day.

Sponsored in part by the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Arts and Culture and the Florida Council on Arts and Culture.
