Youth Camping on the Underground

Someone had the audacity to tell me that I would never get women, "especially Black women" outdoors. Well, not only did Black women sign up for a nature experience on the Underground, but they brought their Black daughters! I am so proud of the UGR3DAY Blossoms who, along with their mother's exercised determination, resilience, teamwork, and positive affirmations, as they assembled their tents for the first time! I think Harriet Tubman would be proud, too.

History at Dusk

Underground Railroad Bat Walk

September 16 | 7:00 PM | Historic Dover

Join UGR3DAY and Kesha Braunskill of Delaware Bat Rehabilitation and Conservation for a unique evening walk through historic Dover.

As dusk settles over the city, we will explore stories of colonial African Americans and Underground Railroad history while standing in places where that history unfolded.

Kesha will introduce us to the fascinating nighttime wildlife overhead—our winged witnesses to history—while sharing insight into bats, their behavior, and their importance to the environment.

1-hour walking experience. Comfortable shoes recommended.
