Wild Science Summer Camp 2015

July 27-31st is Wild Science Camp at our church, St. Leo's.  This year's theme is Nature.  My friend, Marie, wants to lead an owl pellet dissection, my friend, Herb, the local forester, is coming to do tree identification and Project Learning Tree activities.  I contacted Heather from the Consevation District to share a groundwater model, asked Alana with Environmental Protection to teach how to identify macroinvertebrates, and borrowed an Enviroscape watershed model.  I might have an animal rescue agency come, if they confirm!  We will start with traditional camp activities the kids love: tie dye shirts, spray painted hats, home-made journals, a nature hike, and cloth bags.  The kids will make bird feeders, too.  Check out these ideas on my Pinterest board.
