Join Our Summer 2017 Nature Discovery for Kids
at the
Rio Grande Nature Center State Park
2901 Candelaria NW Albuquerque NM 87107
Sponsored by the Friends of the Rio Grande Nature Center
Instructors are current or retired New Mexico licensed teachers.
Join our fun and exciting Summer Program! Children will enjoy nature walks to observe, identify and collect data. Outside games and activities take place all through the bosque. Studies will also be inside the Nature Center, in the classroom and in the beautiful observation room.
Be prompt. All classes meet at the group shelter in front of the Education Building (south of the parking lot), and often head out to the park. If you are late, you may miss the class. After class we will return the children to the group shelter for pick up.
