The Carolina Butterfly Society Midlands Chapter will hold a butterfly walk on Saturday, March 1, 2025, at the 460-acre Peachtree Rock Heritage Preserve and, if time permits, Shealy’s Pond Heritage Preserve. Our target species at Peachtree Rock is the Brown Elfin, but we will also be looking for other early-season butterflies as well.

Meet in the parking area next to Bethel United Methodist Church. The church address is 811 Peachtree Rock Road, Lexington, SC, and the GPS coordinates are 33.8334, -81.2012.

There are no facilities at this site, but gas stations and restaurants are nearby. Dave and Marty Kastner will lead. Either register on the CBS website or RSVP to Marty Kastner at the email address below if you plan to participate. Please bring water, lunch, binoculars, cameras and field guides. Sunscreen, bug spray, long pants and close-toed shoes are highly recommended.
