Whose Track is That?
Family Wildlife Tracking Program
Discover Sand Pond Woodlands and the abundance of flora and fauna found at this spectacular wildlife sanctuary on a family tracking adventure. Together we will examine animal track casts, search for animal signs, analyze track gaits, and learn about the tree and plant species found at this Preserve. We will also be creating a wearable art project, so please bring a shirt to paint on.
Have fun learning about native wildlife while making special memories with family.
This program is suitable for students ages 5-15.
Thanks to a generous donor supporting HCT’s early childhood family programs, this adventure is free!
Space is limited so reservation is required.
