You will also see cool mineral specimens and discover how we use rocks and minerals in everyday life. This is an indoor classroom program with discussion and hands-on activities. We will spend approximately 10-15 minutes outdoors on paths near the Nature Center. Wear closed-toe shoes and bring snacks, water and a hat. Restrooms and water are available at the Nature Center.
