Nature Club

Over 9 sessions beginning in September and running through May, the members of Nature Club will work together to create a map of an uncharted piece of the Clifton Institute and build a trail that runs through it. The project will culminate in an unveiling party for the new trail led by the students themselves.  This is a chance for interested, motivated naturalists to discover corners of the property that not even the staff have seen!  We will focus on new skills each month including cartography, compass-work, and plant ID.  By working in the same patch of woods each session and watching it change with the onset of spring, students will have the opportunity to feel deep connection to a piece of land. Nature Club will meet on the first Saturday of each month 1-3PM on the following dates:

September 3

October 1

November 5

December 3

January 7

February 4

March 4

April 1

May 6- Unveiling Party!

Cost: $90 ($72 for Friends of the Clifton Institute)

Age: Youth grades 7-12; this program is drop off only.

Weather policy: Rain or shine except in case of extreme weather (e.g. thunderstorm or significant snow fall). Please check your email for updates on the morning of the event.

COVID-19 Information: This program will be entirely outdoors (an outside port-o-potty will be available). We require that everyone have a mask with them in case we need to go inside during inclement weather, to administer first aid, or for other reasons. Please do not attend if you are experiencing or have experienced in the last two weeks any symptoms associated with COVID-19 (fever, cough, shortness of breath, etc.).

Registration is REQUIRED. No refunds will be given upon registrant cancellation.
