Description

Outreach Speaker Series: Trapper Nelson
Fri July 27, 2PM-3PM
Jupiter Library, Free, but limited space – RSVP with library
Description: Vince “Trapper” Nelson came to Jupiter in the early 1930s and soon established a permanent camp on the upper Loxahatchee River. Trapper’s Zoo & Jungle Gardens became a local tourist attraction, drawing visitors to picnic, see wild animals, and meet the man likened to a modern Tarzan. For the 50^th anniversary of his mysterious death, join Historian Josh Liller to learn more about one of Jupiter’s legendary characters.
