Program Description

Details

Come discover the local wildlife of Virginia Beach with your young Nature Pals! Each month we will explore a different group of animals in this free grownup and me program for ages 3-8. Three weekly outdoor sessions at the Princess Anne Library culminate with a fourth field trip session to Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge. Please dress accordingly for this outdoor program; inside sessions will only take place in the event of rain. Grownup participation is important for this hands-on program. While the program is free, an entrance fee of $5.00/vehicle (cash or check) is applicable from April - October for the field trip to Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge. Registration is required. This is a month registration, January's theme is Waterfowl.

**Previous participants: Please bring your lanyard and nature journals!
