JANUARY
Kayak: Migratory Birds – Thursday, January 23 at 9:30 am – 12:30 pm | We are going on a duck hunt! It looks a little different than what you might think ….. We will paddle through Smyrna Creek, to J Hook Island, in search of migratory bird species that call the Lagoon home while the temperatures are low.

MORE INFO:
Forever Explorers is designed for young-at-heart, lifelong learners and is geared to offer outdoor opportunities for adults who want to explore and better understand their surrounding coastal environment alongside certified naturalists and scientists!
Participants will explore the roles of salt marshes, mudflats and various saltwater plants and animals by visiting different spoil islands on MDC’s pontoon boat, Discovery, as well as through kayak excursions, land-based programs, and conservation activities! Each participant will receive an Adventure Guide binder and pen to document their experiences.
This program features a spring and fall session; each month focuses on a different theme, and each program explores a topic within that theme. Both sessions will conclude with an end-of-season gathering, slide show and prize drawing. There are also wonderful Forever Explorers incentives for those attending multiple programs!
Forever Explorers is only for participants 18+.
Kayak (price includes snacks): $50 MDC Members | $55 Non-Members
