New Project Alert!

Posted on: March 13th, 2020 by Lisa Author

New Project Alert! We received funding to develop a nature education curriculum for elementary school students. This curriculum would highlight the importance of healthy fish populations to humans and other wildlife, as well as discuss the general conservation and ecological balance of urban environments. Both indoor and outdoor learning experiences will be incorporated when feasible.

Remembering Donna Murray
