Marsh Sanctuary Programs
Friday, December 26 — Animal Tracking
Step into the role of a wildlife detective! Campers will learn how to identify winter animals by reading nature’s clues — from footprints and scat to feathers and forest markings. Discover who’s been walking the trails when no one’s around.
Saturday, December 27 — Winter Art Extravaganza
Celebrate the season through creativity and nature! Campers will gather fallen materials like branches, evergreens, and pinecones to craft beautiful wreaths, crowns, and winter art to take home. A day of imagination, color, and outdoor inspiration.
Wednesday, December 31 — Family New Year’s Day Out*
Ring in the New Year surrounded by nature! Families will enjoy a festive day outdoors with guided hikes, nature crafts, and fun winter games. It’s a joyful way to welcome a new year of adventure and connection. One or two parents may accompany their child.
