Straub Nature Kids Class

Second through fifth graders can learn about the industrious little pika that lives high in Oregon’s mountains, and how it is being affected by our changing climate in a FREE after-school class offered by the Friends of Straub Environmental Learning Center. Children will learn about how pikas survive in their rocky homes during harsh winter conditions, what they eat, and their role in the food chain. The class is taught by Bobbie Snead.

The class for second and third graders is on Thursday, January 13, 2011.
The class for fourth and fifth graders is on Thursday, January 20, 2011.

The classes run from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at Straub Environmental Learning Center, 1320 A St. NE, next to Olinger Pool, near North Salem High School.

The class is free but registration is required. To register, call Alexandra at 503-391-4145 or register at alexandra@fselc.org.

The class is part of the Nature Kids series sponsored by the Friends of Straub Environmental Learning Center.
