Scout
Island’s Family Explorers and Young Naturalists’ Club invite you to join them the Sunday before Earth Day
April 21st at Scout Island Nature Centre.
Starting at 10am dig into the earth to enhance habitat for wildlife. This annual event is always popular so come
early to be sure you get a chance to plant.
Please wear sensible shoes and wear gardening gloves.
At noon come to the Nature House and meet
special guest Beth Bedard, professor of
Archaeology at Thompson Rivers University, who will share her lifetime of
adventures from around the world. Make
an archaeology sandwich with Young Naturalist Club leader Mary Forbes to
see how archaeologists learn about people from the past by studying what
they have left behind in the ground. Practice making stone tools using
an ancient skill called “flint knapping” and get your hands dirty
with an opportunity to excavate for artifacts in our special junior
archaeologist day camp.
Call Scout Island Nature House if you have
questions about this
