NaturePalooza 2015 took place on Sept. 29 at Hardin Hall. The annual event aims to connect the local community with the wonders of nature through hands-on activities and presentations that are fun and educational for the whole family.

This year's event drew in a diverse crowd of adults and children alike. To view more photos from NaturePalooza, visit the UNL School of Natural Resources Facebook page at http://on.fb.me/1PTc2n7.
