Watershed Walkabout: Partner Programs
We are working on something new and exciting to offer our local communities! See below for more infomation. Stay tuned for more to come!
Meet a real Marine Conservation Biologist with our BRAND NEW partnership programs! Whether you are homeschooling, want a fun family activity, or you want to learn more about our amazing watershed, we've got the right program for you. Our Director of Education is teaming up with some awesome local organizations to bring you interactive, hands-on learning experiences outdoors! Based off our signature in-school field trip program, you will get a combination activity and guided nature walk. Cost of each program will be determined by host organization.
If you are interested in having Marine CSI specifically come to your homeschool group/co-op or you'd like to make specific arrangements for a specialty program for your family, please see the program listing below. Cost of one activity is $65 flat rate plus tax (Travel fee may apply). Pricing for series is based on a PER STUDENT fee plus tax (travel costs may apply).
