Programs in your classroom can be arranged at any time that is convenient for your schedule.

Step 3 - Decide whether you would like to add time in to use a picnic area** and/or the gift shop at no additional charge. You may also reserve the use of Grasshopper Grove, the Museum's Nature Play space for an additional $25 per hour, per class.  Please be sure to let the Education Manager know if you will be adding any of these options when booking your program.

**  The Wildlife Education Center can only accommodate approximately 20-24 students in its picnic area. You must plan to be transported to the Outdoor Discovery Center if the number of students exceeds 24.

We will then send your program invoice and directions to the location of your program (Outdoor Discovery Center-ODC or Wildlife Education Center -WEC). Please make sure your bus driver receives the directions and knows at which location to drop off attendees.

Step 5 – When you receive your invoice, you must sign and return it with your payment.  Payments are due 10 days before your program date.
