Eco Investigators 2025
Aspiring scientists ages 12-14 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. Students should dress for a daily nature walk and bring a labeled REUSABLE water bottle. Participants should have sunscreen and bug repellant applied prior to entering the Center. Limited to 12 participants.
Week 1 July 21 – July 25 Animal Classification: Calling all animal lovers, join us in a week all about animal classification and care. In this class, students will learn what differentiates our different vertebrate and invertebrate groups. We will go over animal handling for some of our animal ambassadors. We will also learn what type of care goes into taking care of all our animals and get to help provide them with enrichment. A minimum of 6 students is required to run. Space is limited.
