As you celebrate the ultimate summer food with today, remember to keep cooked hot dogs out of the “danger zone” to limit your chance of food poisoning. Preferably, eat them while they’re hot! They’re not called cold dogs, after all. 😜

Have you checked out our Accessible Trails Guide?

The guide has info about accessible trails found at ODNR properties across the state, including in your Ohio State Parks, state nature preserves and wildlife areas.

Many of these trails are great for wildlife viewing, offering seasonal opportunities to observe songbirds, waterfowl, frogs, turtles, fish, or mammals.
