Cincinnati Nature Center has teamed up with Roads Rivers and Trails (RRT) to promote getting outdoors, and out of the stores, this Black Friday. Tokens can be found along the trails at Rowe Woods and Long Branch Farm & Trails Friday, November 28 through Sunday, November 30.

45 tokens are located at Rowe Woods and 20 at Long Branch Farm & Trails. All tokens are located outside, within reach from the trail. Please limit 1 token per family.

To redeem: Return this token to RRT, located at 118 Main St, Milford, OH 45150, to redeem one scratch-off ticket. Scratch to reveal your special prize, valued up to a $50 RRT gift card. Tokens are guaranteed prizes through December 1 and while supplies last through December 25.

‍

Make an in-store donation at RRT to purchase more scratch-off tickets! Scratch-off tickets will be sold through December 31. All proceeds go directly towards Cincinnati Nature Center's mission of Inspiring Conservation.

These tokens have been selectively placed and documented by Nature Center staff and will be collected once this promotion is over, on Sunday, November 30 at 12 pm. All token materials are biodegradable if lost and cannot be collected.

Our trails meander through pristine old-growth forests, fields dotted with native prairie grasses and flowers, challenging stream crossings, and ponds filled with turtles, fish, frogs, salamanders, and invertebrates.

Trails improve our mental and physical health, connect us with others, and provide a sense of wonderment. But our trails also require continual maintenance with strategic planning, dedicated resources, and sometimes a rest from human impact.
