General Information

Program Title: Glaciers to Wildflowers

Presenter: Raymond Wiggers

Program Specifics

A mere twenty thousand years ago, much of northeastern Illinois was a forbidding ice desert. This talk explores how, at the end of that glaciation, the Prairie State's landscapes, soils, and plant communities evolved into their present forms. An overview of significant pre-Ice Age events is also included. Over the past half-decade, Raymond Wiggers has presented over 135 public lectures and keynote address for public libraries, nature centers, historical societies, museums, and other organizations across the state of Illinois. In addition, he has also taught and written extensively on communicating important concepts of science to public audiences.
