Rugged Research is a fun and exciting nature based education group founded by Park Rangers. Our goal is to instill students of all ages with a sense of place and wonder within their local ecosystems. We believe that cultivating a love and respect for nature at a young age will transfer into a desire to care for our planet as an adult. We believe that purposeful exploration is fundamental to a child's development and growth.

Rugged Research programs are led by instructors who use innovative experiential learning methods to guide student into a deeper understanding of the connection between humans and the natural world. Our program extends this learning and helps students make connections to larger global environmental issues. Rugged Research helps students develop a more mindful awareness of their everyday encounters with the natural world and fosters resilience and confidence while decreasing anxiety and stress in their own lives.

Schedule: Saturdays October 1 - October 29 from 10:00 - 11:00 a.m.
