Fieldtrips

All our field trips are open to everyone, members and non-members alike.  There are no pets allowed and smoking is prohibited when you are with the group.  Preregistration is suggested but not necessary unless otherwise noted. That being said, we like to know if you plan to come along. 

We make every effort to leave on time.  We will wait a few extra minutes if we know that you are coming.  Please call or e-mail the contact person for any questions regarding the trip.  We usually meet at a local spot where car-pools can be arranged.  Please keep in mind that if you ride with someone it is courteous to share in the cost of gas, park fees and/or tolls.

If you have a group that would like to come along, please contact the group leader.  We will add extra guides or make special arrangements to accommodate each person to insure everyone has a good experience.  If your group is made up of predominately of children, we can provide a much richer experience if we know in advance how many are coming and their ages. We can also arrange special fieldtrips for kids.  Contact us today for details.
