SUMMARY:Vernal Pool Camp
DESCRIPTION:Home for spring break? Come to our first ever day-long spring break camp\, all about vernal pools! \nCampers will spend a day with Clifton Institute staff studying the animals that live in our vernal pools! Vernal pools are small bodies of water which dry out for part of the year\, making them the perfect amphibian nurseries. They are home to frog\, salamander\, and dragonfly young\, as well as a wriggling mass of other creatures! \nWe will spend the first part of the day learning about amphibian and insect life cycles\, as well as how to identify many of our local amphibian species by sight and sound. We’ll spend the rest of the day hiking to the pools with our rain boots and research equipment and learning how to safely handle amphibians\, check water quality\, and interpret our findings. \nCampers will have the chance to participate in real science\, practice nature journaling\, as well as use their creativity to design their own amphibian paradise. \nCampers will need: \n-Picnic lunch \n-2 snacks \n-Rubber boots \n-Backpack \n-Water bottle \nThis is a drop-off program and a signed waiver will be required for participation. If the cost is prohibitive or you are missing something from the needs list\, please email Bridget Bradshaw (bbradshaw@cliftoninstitute.org). More details about the day will be sent 2 weeks prior to the program. \nPrice: $50 ($40 for Friends of Clifton) per child \nAge: Students in grade 1-6. \nWeather policy: Rain or shine except in case of extreme weather (e.g. thunderstorm or significant snow fall). \nCOVID-19 Information: This program will be entirely outdoors (an outside porta potty will be available).
