Love learning about new habitats? Curious about wildlife? Our Junior Rangers at the Refuge program is perfect for your family! Join us each month as we explore the Don Edwards SF Bay National Wildlife Refuge through fun, educational activities.
For this program, we will use our senses to explore the salt marsh on an interactive walk. We'll discover the plants and animals that call this habitat home, understand why salt marshes are so important, and learn how to protect these special places.
Our Junior Ranger program is perfect for families with elementary-aged children.
