Landels-Hill Big Creek Reserve

11 Apr, 09 AM - 13 Apr, 07 AM

Exploring New Horizons is a nonprofit company devoted to educating the youth of the bay area in scientific observation, sustainability and conservation. Our main goal is to instill in children a sense of importance of scientific literacy, environmental awareness, observational skills and a general appreciation for the outside world. During our inservice we plan to learn and study more about native flora and fauna of California. There will be training sessions in botany, birding, tracking, etc. The amazing diversity of ecosystems at Big Creek will allow us to see and learn more species than other sites. We are also ready to help the reserve in whatever way we can while visiting; we are more than happy to help with invasive species removal, trail maintenance, wild life surveys or any other task that might need doing. In addition, there is interest among the naturalists on staff in doing a BioBlitz, or something similar. All the while, these activities will help us bond as staff members, which will ultimately help us to create a more positive, cohesive learning environment for the hundreds of students who visit us each week.
