WOODSTOCK – The McHenry County Conservation District will offer a variety of programs to get families outside this spring.

• Conservation Egg Hunt: 2 to 3 p.m. March 24 at Exner Marsh Conservation Area, Lakewood and Miller roads, Lake in the Hills. A short hike leads kids to bird habitats, where they search for “eggs” of local birds. Everyone finds “eggs” and everyone gets a prize. Program fees cover the purchase of prizes and refreshments.

The registration deadline is Sunday. No refunds will be issued for cancellations made after this date. The cost is $4 for county residents and $5 for nonresidents. It is for children ages infant to 13, accompanied by an adult.
