Our CEED Leadership Program is back, but this time we are adding a bit of Conservation! This program is developed for young teens that are ready for a little more than a regular camp experience. CEED is helping develop future scientists and conservationists, while also developing them as leaders. Teens in this program will not only go out in the field doing some real science, they will also be occasionally bringing their knowledge back to the younger children. The program is either a 3-week program at Post Morrow Foundation from July 11- July 29 or a 2-week program at CEED and at Mama Farm, the organic farm next door, from August 1-August 12. For a discount, you can register for all 5 weeks of leadership from July 11- August 12!
At Post Morrow CEED’s leadership team will be team building, exploring, and learning, whether seining in the bay, studying the Beaver Dam Creek ecosystem, or identifying trees on our nature trails for part of the time. They will also be leading CEED’s younger participants on hikes, performing science activities, and explorations of the marine environment and more. At Mama Farm and CEED, the leadership trainees will be working with farming and livestock and also exploring nature in the Dennis Puleston Preserve and CEED grounds.
The sessions will run from 8:45-3:45 Monday through Friday and cost $350 per week (although participants must make the full 2-week or 3-week commitment.) All participants will receive a Leadership certificate. This is a great way to gain experience in leadership for future careers in science, conservation, policy or education. The best part is the participating teens will get a "staff" Summer Nature Experience t-shirt.
Session 1 July 11-July 29 (3 weeks) at Post Morrow Cost $1050
Session 2 August 1 - August 12 (2 weeks) at Mama Farm and CEED Cost $700
Register for both Sessions July 11- August 12 Cost $1,500
