PERT is hoping to offer the program on **Tuesday, August 25, from 8:30 AM–12:30 PM**, but will move forward only if enough people are registered to attend. Please register by **Friday, August 21 at noon** if you can attend Tuesday. We will notify registrants by Friday evening to confirm whether the program will proceed.

Join the Pennypack Ecological Restoration Trust for a free, hands-on field experience designed for teachers, administrators, school staff, retired educators, informal educators, aspiring educators, and others interested in environmental education.

Participants will experience activities and field trip routes developed with local teachers and school districts while exploring how PERT uses the preserve as an outdoor classroom. The program will include bird activities and binocular instruction, examples of elementary, middle, and high school programs, and visits to areas used to teach about grasslands, forests, wildlife, watersheds, water quality, conservation, biodiversity, and environmental stewardship.

We will also share examples of existing school partnerships and discuss ways schools can work with PERT through field trips, school-based projects, environmental clubs, and other outdoor learning opportunities.

This event is also a great opportunity for retired educators and others interested in supporting PERT’s K–12 education programs. Information will be available about volunteer opportunities.

Refreshments will be provided.
