For your consideration in planning field trips for the children, we offer the following information. A usual morning or afternoon trip consists of:

  • Bird Boxes -- Kits are provided. The child takes the
    finished box home.
  • Skins & Skulls -- Learn all about animals, their
    habitats and characteristics
  • Nature Trail -- 3/4 mile walk guided by volunteers
    who share information about the trees and plants
    native to “Lost Acres”
  • Eddie Eagle -- A gun safety video that teaches
    children to "Stop, Don’t Touch, Leave the Area,
    Tell an Adult" when they see or find a gun.

Groups are welcome to bring lunch to eat at the Foster Pavilion.
Classes are divided into small groups to ensure children receive individual attention. All sessions are led by adult volunteers. Other age appropriate activities are available upon request.

We are also available to take the following activities into your classroom or meeting place: Bird Boxes, Skins & Skulls, Leaf Prints.
