SUMMARY:CoastalExplorer: Shoreline & Shipwreck Scholars
DESCRIPTION:Coastal exploration with a side of shipwreck! Participants will be guided on a Castle Hill hike to Steep Hill Beach\, where we will explore the beach and discover treasures washed up by the waves. Piece together clues to learn what is living under the sand and below the water line. We will use field guides to identify shells\, egg cases\, seaweed and more to tell the story of what creatures inhabit the beach. We will also share the fascinating tale of the schooner Ada K Damon\, wrecked on Steep Hill Beach in 1909. Participants will have the chance to search for remnants of the shipwreck and make observations and measurements of what they find. \nThis program is part of the CoastalExplorers spring monthly series\, highlighting different habitats around our coast at The Crane Estate. Other programs in this series include Sand Dune Safari (Sunday\, 4/13) and Animals in the Estuary (Sunday\, 5/4). You can register for one\, or get a 15% discount if you register for all three. To access this discount contact CraneOutdoors@thetrustees.org to get the coupon code before you sign up. \nCraneExplorer events are family-friendly programs welcoming learners of all ages. Hikes cover less ground to accommodate smaller strides and have more frequent stops to look\, listen\, and learn from our CraneExplorer guides. Interactive education programs include hands-on activities to engage our curiosity. CraneExplorer Programs are best suited for ages 5+. \nPlease be aware that we may walk for up to two hours and cover approximately 1-2 miles. As such\, adult discretion on your child’s ability to manage this activity is advised.
