Topics may include:

• Field Trip – Beach Exploration at Indian Point: Explore the diversity of animals that live under the rocks and seaweed when the tide goes out. Wear your rubber boots and prepare for a morning of fun searching for crabs, sea stars, urchins, and more! Meet at the Aquarium and we will travel in our own vehicles to Indian Point. Participants are welcome to come back to the Aquarium after (until 12:30pm).
