Aquatic World
10 am - noon
We know that three quarters of the earth's surface is composed of water. Have you ever wondered how much of that water is considered potable fresh water? We will talk about the importance of water as a finite resource as well as simple ways we can conserve water everyday. Our activities will include a discussion of the many interesting aquatic animals that are found within the sanctuary, and a fun interactive craft activity.

Vernal Pools
10 am - noon
Vernal pools--forested wetlands that are dry for part of the year--provide vital habitat for amphibians. Come and see what's happening in our vernal pools this spring. We'll examine the soil of a forested wetland and search for frogs and salamanders in various life stages, as well as other aquatic animals. Wear wading boots or shoes that can get wet (plus a change of shoes) and dress for the weather.
