Family Ponding Time

THIS PROGRAM IS CANCELED DUE TO THE WEATHER FORECAST

Discover the amazing adaptations that enable pond plants and animals to survive in their habitat. Using handheld magnifiers, nets, and our pond-life visual aids, we’ll explore life in our own Goodliffe Pond. Families will rotate among multiple stations, learning about life cycles, food chains and webs, and the ways that various pond creatures move, eat, and breathe. Refreshments will be offered. Quality family ponding time!

Date: Monday, October 13 (Columbus Day)

Time: 10:00 am – 12:00 pm (allow ~45 minutes to participate, arriving/departing at any time in that window; participants are welcome to linger)

Ages: 4 through adult (the program will be tailored by age)

Format: This is not a drop-off program; children must be accompanied by an actively participating adult. The event takes place outdoors (with the possibility of indoors).

Cost per Family (up to 5 people): Members: $15; non-members: $20
