Gather, Connect, Discover, Reflect

with Barb Casper and Cindy Zollner

Join us for Whispers of the Marsh, a guided journey through the stunning landscapes of Tobico Marsh, where towering forests blend seamlessly with serene marshlands. This immersive experience welcomes individuals and families alike, offering a chance to connect more deeply with nature, with yourself, and with those you share the journey with.

Step into wonder, embrace the beauty, and be part of something truly special.

Let’s take a walk—but not just any walk. This one is different. It’s not about steps, distance, or speed. It’s about connection. With yourself. With the world around you.

We’ll use the letters of W-A-L-K as a guide:

✨ Witness the world around you.

❤️ Accept the moment as it is.

🌿 Let go, focus, and love the experience.

🧠 Know yourself and the natural world around you better with every step.

About
Tobico Marsh

Tobico Marsh is a natural landmark in Bay County, Michigan, just north of Bay City. It was designated as a registered National Natural Landmark in 1976 due to its large size, relatively undisturbed condition, and variety of aquatic plant life.

The marsh covers an area of 1,652 acres and is one of the largest remaining freshwater coastal wetlands on the Great Lakes.

Tobico Marsh is particularly significant for supporting migratory birds, with hundreds of thousands passing through and stopping over each spring and fall.
