For our Spring 2025 season, we will start accepting booking requests on Monday February 3, 2025. The In-Person program will run on dates in May & June on the Elbow River, but we also still offer a Virtual program for schools that don't secure in-person dates.
In-Person Field Study - this is an all day field trip to the headwaters of the Elbow River, and includes access to a pre-program session delivered via a 28 minute pre-recorded video with our Water Educator presenting the concepts which will be covered during the field trip. It also includes a live Teacher Orientation session delivered via Google Meet, or similar online platform, for teachers who will attend the field trips. All components for the In-Person Field Study cost $400 per group, which is generally 1 class. We can book a maximum of 2 groups per date, with a maximum of 35 people in each group (students & staff).
Virtual Field Study - this consists of 3 Modules: 2 videos + 1 live interactive session with one of our Water Educators. The cost for all Modules is $150 per class. If you'd prefer to choose the Virtual Field Study program, please let us know ASAP, as we can send you the links for the first two Modules as soon as you book it, and we can book the online session with the Water Educator for a broader range of dates than the all-day field study. Watch our short trailer for the Virtual Field School program.
