Kayak: Photography & Data Collection – Friday, October 11 at 9:00 – 11:30 am | Scientists use many tools to better understand their surroundings but one of the tools not frequently talked about is the camera. Whether it is a large tripod with a telescope attachment, a game camera, or cell phone camera, scientists are constantly using the power of a captured image to make new discoveries and conclusions. BONUS: Photo Contest!! Participants may submit one photo they took during the program and the photo will be posted to social media where our followers will vote for best photo! The photo with the highest number of likes will be printed and hung in MDC’s Welcome Center. Only supplies necessary is your phone camera!
MORE INFO:
Forever Explorers is designed for young-at-heart, lifelong learners and is geared to offer outdoor opportunities for adults who want to explore and better understand their surrounding coastal environment alongside certified naturalists and scientists!
Participants will explore the roles of salt marshes, mudflats and various saltwater plants and animals by visiting different spoil islands on MDC’s pontoon boat, Discovery, as well as through kayak excursions, land-based programs, and conservation activities! Each participant will receive an Adventure Guide binder and pen to document their experiences.
This program features a spring and fall session; each month focuses on a different theme, and each program explores a topic within that theme. Both sessions will conclude with an end-of-season gathering, slide show and prize drawing. There are also wonderful Forever Explorers incentives for those attending multiple programs!
Forever Explorers is only for participants 18+.
Kayak (price includes snacks): $50 MDC Members | $55 Non-Members
