Felix Neck Wildlife Sanctuary announced that it will provide Fern & Feather Natural History Day Camp scholarships and discounts to year-round Vineyard residents again this year.
The camp offers opportunities for children to experience the outdoors in the 350-acre wildlife sanctuary while exploring forest, field, salt marsh, freshwater and saltwater communities. Each weekly theme incorporates outdoor investigation, games, hands-on natural history lessons, hikes, stories and crafts.
Programs are available for children entering grades Pre-K through eight. The leader-in-training program is open to young adults entering grades nine and up who are interested in nature and working with children.
The scholarships are made possible through the Dooley-Rosenwald and Ellen Eberhardt Memorial scholarship funds, the Martha’s Vineyard Harley Riders and generous individual donations.
Felix Neck is part of the Massachusetts Audubon Society, which works to protect the nature of Massachusetts for people and wildlife. With more than 100,000 members, Mass Audubon cares for 34,000 acres of conservation land, provides educational programs for 225,000 children and adults annually.
