Field Trips Details and Registration


Morning Program:
For each 2-hour morning program, students spend 1.5 hours in the field and a half-hour in the classroom (Sensational Senses is shorter). Trained volunteer Nature Guides hike with students in small groups of 10 or less, offering an intimate setting for exploration and scientific inquiry. Schools schedule a start time between 9 and 10AM.

Full-Day Program:
Each 4-hour full-day program includes a morning program (2 hours), lunch (.5 hours), and afternoon program (1.5 hours). Students participate in interactive group activities or service projects that build on concepts introduced in the morning program.

Lunch:
We will reserve our covered, open-air shelter with benches for your class if you wish to bring lunch to have after your morning program. You may be expected to share the shelter with another group.

Program Fees:
$5.00 per child (morning program)
$8.00 per child (full day program)

Registration:
Field trips are available weekdays from September through early June, including the winter months. We accomodate a maximum of 60 students per day for field trips. Dates fill quickly, so please plan ahead of time. We schedule programs over email, the phone, or in person Monday-Friday between 8 and 5. We will email or mail you a confirmation packet. To hold your place, we must receive full payment within two weeks of registration.
