Midland Railroad Hotel to release Monarch Butterflies

At 5 pm on Saturday, May 27th, the Midland Railroad Hotel in Wilson, Kansas will kick off the summer with a release of Monarch Butterflies.  The public is invited to the release.  The hotel receives the Monarch Butterflies as chrysalis and caterpillars.

Monarch Butterflies go through 4 generations before making their migratory flight south. Monarch populations have recently decreased due to lack of habitat and changing weather patterns.

The Midland Railroad Hotel plans to release Monarch Butterflies every 2 weeks until Labor Day Weekend.

For further information about the event, contact: Melinda Merrill, 913-708-4084 or melindamerrill161@hotmail.com.
