Marine CSI: Across Generations
As part of the Marine CSI experience, we now offer interactive, inquiry-based STEAM activities to families of all ages. Through our growing partnership with Pender County Parks and Recreation, the summer of 2025 will be filled with these exciting experiences the whole family will love. Offered the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays in June, July, and August at Hampstead Kiwanis Park. Cost for each activity is $9/adult and $7/child, with registration and payment through the Pender Parks website.
We also have plans to team up with 55+ in the Southeast region to offer these engaging activities to their active adult communities. Active adults will enjoy learning about marine science and our coastal ecosystems through this program. STAY TUNED FOR MORE INFORMATION TO COME!
**Marine CSI: Coastal Science Investigations and all its programs contained herein have no affiliation with UNCW, the Center for Marine Science, or their MarineQuest program.**
