Young Naturalists Observe and Conserve
LEADER
Jennifer Fell:  ynchomelearners@gmail.com
Pre-registration required for all Explorer Days


This is a program designed specially for home learners who live in the Vancouver area.

Outings will take place on weekdays rather than on weekends.

Young  Naturalists' Club
Lower Mainland Home Learners
To take part in any Explorer Day, all participants must sign a waiver form available on the day.

 

Friends are welcome if space permits.  Any young naturalist 14 years of age and under must be accompanied by an adult.

 

Please arrive 15 minutes before the scheduled start time to ensure enough time for waiver signing and passport stamping.  Remember to bring your passport—fill it out in advance at home to make it easier for the Leaders to stamp it. 

Every time you complete a passport (attend 6 events), send the tickets to YNC in Vancouver and you will receive a certificate, a prize, and a new passport.  The prize for completing your second passport is a YNC cap.

All activities will take place rain or shine unless otherwise noted.  Please consider the weather and the activity, and wear appropriate clothing and shoes, including sunhats and sunscreen. Bring snacks and water.

Other items that might be useful are: magnifying glass, binoculars, sketch book and pencil, camera and field guides.

Starting times are firm out of courtesy to the Leader of the day. We regret that we cannot wait for those who are late.

Please stay with the Leader and let him/her know if you are leaving early.
