Did you know that beavers are environmental superheroes? They are excellent builders and considered keystone species due to their incredible ability to shape the environment.
Join us for an exciting spring break adventure at the Water Center’s wetlands where we’ll dive into the fascinating world of these amazing creatures! In this hands-on exploration, we’ll discover how beavers create their homes, build dams, and transform wetlands into thriving ecosystems. You’ll learn how their work helps other wildlife, cleans the water, and even impacts the landscape around us.
This program is perfect for kids aged 6-12. All youth need to be accompanied by an adult during the entire program.
Advanced registration is required. Sign up today!
