Alley Pond Pioneers 2025

Budding scientists ages 9-11 will love exploring nature and science at APEC!  Each weekly program will focus on a different topic and have live animal guests, hands-on activities, and outdoor time. Children should dress for a daily nature walk and bring a labeled REUSABLE water bottle and nut-free snack. Participants should have sunscreen and bug repellant applied prior to entering the Center.  Limited to 12 participants.

Week 5             August 4 – August 8             Ologies: Have you ever wondered what the difference is between an archeologist and an anthropologist? Or wondered where the distinction is between an ecologist and a zoologist. Each day this week we will look at a different field of science ranging from archeology to zoology. Students will complete hands-on activities to learn what it’s like to work in each of these fields. Space is limited.
