Get outside with the family this summer!
The learning goes on all summer long at the Refuge, June 15 through Aug. 15, 2010. Fun (and free!) programs designed especially for families mean kids absorb educational information without even realizing it. - Family Birding Tram Tours, every Wednesday and Saturday, 10 a.m.: All aboard! The first 28 people to arrive score a free narrated birding tour along Wildlife Drive. Learn how to identify and count birds during the tour, then return to the Education Center to enter sighting data into the E-Bird Trail Tracker computer.
- Reading at the Refuge, every Thursday at 11 a.m.: It incorporates a short hike along Indigo Trail with each reading and crafts session. Attendees will also receive a free Nature Journal (one to each child) in which to record their impressions of their field trip and future nature encounters.
- Family Beach Walk, every Tuesday at 9 a.m.: In partnership with the Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum, the program convenes at Gulfside Park for a one-hour exploration of the Refuge’s gulf-front Perry Tract.
