Get outside and explore nature with Head Naturalist Eric Duran this spring! Eric and his Outdoor Explorers will make use of the abundant resources in our nature park to study plants, animals, habitats and more after typical school hours. Classes may include brief lessons, outdoor investigations, crafts, animal encounters, and more, but exact elements will depend on the topic of the week.
Ages: 5 to 12
Class Size: up to 10 kids who are in one social pod/cohort/bubble
Day and Time: Thursdays from 4:30 to 6 pm
Cost: $200 (this class will be booked by the cohort, with one adult booking and making the payment for the class and collecting payments from cohort families)
Note: This is a drop off program. We ask that parents and younger siblings enjoy other parts of the park or go off-site during class so that we may maintain a small group size for this program.
Advance registration required. Note: When you register, please don’t log in to your personal NDC account.
