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

 

To take part in any Explorer Day, all adult guardians must sign a consent form available on the day.

 

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.

CONTACT LEADERS FOR INFORMATION ABOUT UPCOMING ACTIVITIES.

Have you ever wanted to go on an wilderness hike but didn’t know what to take? Have you dreamed of hiking into a lake, setting up a tent and waking up to the sound of the loons – but didn’t know how to pack for such a trip? Cheryl has done some extensive backcountry hiking, and most recently with her children ages 7 and 9.  Learn about where to go, what to pack (and not pack), and how to have fun and be safe while backcountry hiking and camping.  A great video will also be shown.
