Earth Day Special Earth Day Special
 
It’s a large planet with lots of wonderful plants and animals all over it!  Every living thing needs clean water, fresh air, food, and shelter to survive. How can young learners help take care of such a large place? Join us as we examine the role of two very important tools, “knowledge” and “caring”.

We’ve designed engaging activities and created an action component to help your students make a difference!  This unique and empowering hour-long program features a very special craft at the end!
Fee:
$7 per student at the conservancy
$8 per student at your site, $10 per class travel & transportation fee
