Program Options:
Creek Creatures (offered AM & PM)
There is a magical world of under-water life right in front of us! How we care for our lakes, rivers and streams has a huge impact on that life. Collect and identify macro-invertebrates (insects) in order to better understand the importance of water quality in this engaging, discovery-based class.

Ojibwe culture and traditions are a rich part of Minnesota’s history. Through exploration, stories, and sensory experiences, students will learn about traditional Ojibwe practices and valuable uses of native Minnesota trees.
