Join us for the first time as we open the Watershed Explorers Program to the community. All age learners are welcome to this family day format -- from preschoolers to adults!More about Watershed Explorers here:
https://sdrvc.org/what-we-do/education/watershed-explorers/
Watershed Explorers is an outdoor education program that provides youth an opportunity to travel and experience the length of the San Dieguito Watershed. The explorers journey includes the headwaters of the San Dieguito River on Volcan Mountain, Lake Hodges, the San Diego Archaeological Center, Sikes Adobe Historic Farmstead, and the award-winning Birdwing Open Air Classroom at the San Dieguito Lagoon.
You may choose to attend one or all of the locations on it's featured day. The fullest experience will be to attend the full series, and see the watershed from its beginnings on Volcan Mountain down to the sea!
Each location focuses on a different theme providing a unique opportunity for participants to experience and learn about the many facets of the watershed from the natural world to its history and cultural significance. As they experience the outdoors, explorers develop a “sense of place” and appreciation for the environment – recognizing they play a role in preserving and protecting the natural and cultural resources of the watershed.
Be sure to wear comfortable clothes, sun protection, and bring plenty of water. Specific directions/instructions will be emailed prior to the event. Due to the pandemic transportation will not be provided.
