Who says summer camp is just for the kids? We have good news for all the adults who also love to explore and learn about our coastal ecosystems: UF/IFAS Extension Flagler County is partnering with the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve to offer a three-day Adult Coastal Camp for Lifelong Learners once again this June.
From the coastal wetlands to the beaches, this three-day camp for lifelong learners will bring the classroom into the field throughout Flagler County. Lifelong Learners will explore marshes, estuaries, beaches, and dunes on foot and via kayak, learn about monitoring efforts researchers use to understand our coastal environment, and share stewardship opportunities that everyone can take part in.
The program will meet for three days from 9 am – 3pm, with outdoor activities in the morning and the afternoon spent on lessons and hands-on activities indoors. The program has two offerings, from June 3-5 and again on June 10-12. The full schedule and registration is available online through Eventbrite under the name Lifelong Learners: Adult Coastal Camp or directly through the links https://bit.ly/LifelongLearnersJune3-5 and https://bit.ly/LifelongLearnersJune10-12. Please reach out to Florida Sea Grant Extension Agent Carolyn Kovacs at c.kovacs@ufl.edu with any questions.
