Junior Summer Wetland Explorers Program (27 June - 01 July 2022)

Kick off the summer season with a week of science and fun in the sun! Junior Wetland Explorers will learn about habitats, wetlands, watersheds, ecosystem components, food webs, and recycling through guided hikes of the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve, hands-on science labs, STEM-based activities and crafts, and supplemental education videos. Every day brings new discoveries on the trail, and Junior Wetland Explorers will record all their findings in their wetland science journal.

Please note that Wednesday (29 June) will be partially spent at the Bolsa Chica State Beach, where Junior Wetland Explorers will learn about the wetland's neighboring habitat - the ocean. Make sure to bring a towel and change of clothes - after all, what's a beach trip without getting your toes wet!
