From the Forest to the Sea...It's all Connected.

During Science Camp we will explore the rich ecosystems of the Copper River Delta and the Prince William Sound by foot, canoe, kayak and raft. Programs are led by our knowledgeable and caring staff, and we often invite local scientists to share their expertise with us. Each day is filled with adventure and fun. We hope you'll join us in Summer 2008!

 
From the Forest to the Sea Science Day Camp
June 16-20
Ages 8-11
Cost: $175
Science Camp is a great place to just be yourself-and to learn about the amazing landscape that surrounds Cordova. Each day we explore a different ecosystem, and by the end of the week you'll be able to see for yourself that from the forest to the sea...it's all connected. During your week at camp we'll hike through the rainforest, observe glaciers up close, canoe through the wetlands of the Copper River Delta and kayak or take a boat ride in Orca Inlet.
