Birds do it, bees do it, even bats do it! Meet at the education yurt to uncover facts about the fabulous critters that can fly, explore the mechanics of flight, and even try to catch and release some things with wings!No registration necessary. "Open House" means you can come and go as you please during the allotted time frame. "Last Call" is 2:30pm--if no one is present then, the naturalist will begin to pack up.
Who can become a Junior Naturalist?
Students aged 5-12 accompanied by an adult. Junior Naturalist programs are not appropriate for organized groups. If you are an organized group—including Scout Troops-- please contact ERNC to arrange for a private program.
What does it mean? How long does it take?
Being an official Eagle River Nature Center Junior Naturalist means that you have attended 12 Junior Naturalist programs. A Junior Naturalist will (usually) be officially sworn in on the day of their 12th program. They will receive an official Junior Naturalist kit with various tools to help them explore the world along with an official certificate. Junior Naturalists will also take the Junior Naturalist Oath (reverse) and well help others to be successful. Just because you’re a Junior Naturalist doesn’t mean you can’t come to programs any more—feel free to continue and even work toward another Junior Naturalist certification! There is no official time limit, however, punch cards may be discarded after several years of disuse.
