🦟 FAMILY FUN ALERT!

Just in time for summer, get ready for a wildly fun (and a little creepy!) adventure at the Invasion of the Bloodsuckers Family Day on June 6 at the Museum of York County! 🏛️✨

Kids and families can dive into a hands-on day all about the fascinating world of bloodsucking creatures—from mosquitos and ticks to leeches and bats 🦇🪰🪱. Explore interactive exhibits, make fun crafts, catch planetarium shows, and even come face-to-face with live leeches (if you dare!) 😳

This special event also celebrates the opening of the new traveling exhibit “Attack of the Bloodsuckers!”, bringing science, nature, and a little bit of spooky fun together for an unforgettable family experience.

If your kids love animals, science, creepy-cool discoveries, or just getting out for something different to do before summer kicks off—this is one you won’t want to miss!

📍 Museum of York County, Rock Hill
📅 Friday, June 6 | 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
