Learn ‘Em and Log ‘Em!
Kids, have you ever wanted to identify the animals around you, even down to their exact species? This program will do that and more, as you become citizen scientists! You’ll go out “in the field,” identify wildlife, record your observations, and submit them to real-world scientific projects, such as E-Bird, I-Naturalist, and Project Squirrel. Education Director Carrie Szwed will be your teacher and lead your team of young naturalists. This program will be based out of the A.B. Cedar Room, but we will spend much of our time outside. Please dress accordingly for the weather. Masks are required for everyone inside and if/when we are not socially-distanced outside. Drop-off program. Pre-registration and pre-payment are required by calling 860-567-0857 or visiting whitememorialcc.org. Space is limited! Members: $20/child, Non-members: $30/child. Please inquire about financial aid as needed.
