Environmental educator, Sky Stevens is giving families the opportunity to get some quality outdoor time together this spring.
Stevens is setting up a non-profit organization called Looking Close and will lead five outdoor adventures in Canoe on Saturdays from April 18 to May 16.
The activities are appropriate for two age groups – children ages three to six in the New Stewards Program that runs from 9:15 to 10 a.m., and children ages seven to nine in the Explorer Program, which runs from 10:30 a.m. to noon.
Children must be accompanied by an adult and the fee for each event is $10 for children and $5 for adults. Register for all five weeks and get a 10 per cent discount.
Meet at the Canoe Beach Overflow Parking lot off of Park Hill Road
Stevens has a degree in Outdoor Recreation and Leadership and has developed and facilitated educational stewardship programs for WildBC, The Stanley Park Ecology Society, The Land Conservancy, Ducks Unlimited, Nature Trust, Young Naturalists and the Ministry of Natural Resources in the Cypress Hills.
“This is an opportunity for families to get their kids outside and exploring nature,” Stevens says.
