We are excited to welcome children entering grades K-3 to this exciting drop-off program! Join Nature Educators to learn all about the animals that call the Hudson Highlands home. During each unique session, a different animal will be highlighted and celebrated, giving children the opportunity to meet these amazing creatures up-close. Each session also includes time spent in the Hall of Animals before heading outdoors to play and hike!

The Hall of Animals at the Wildlife Education Campus (WEC) is the home of many animals that can be found in our local woods, fields, ponds and rivers including, rabbits, turtles, frogs, toads, salamanders, snakes, fish, owls, and of course the crowd favorite, Edgar, our resident crow that says "hello!" The WEC boasts several hiking trails and different landscapes including the creek and forest for children to explore!
