Young Naturalist Summer Programs 2024

The Young Naturalist Program at the Lloyd Center is a way for children ages 6-9 to enjoy a fun-filled summer of exploration, discovery and wonder of the natural world around them. Throughout the summer, children will learn about the amazing creatures and habitats around the Lloyd Center using hands-on games, activities, crafts and trail walks.

Spaces are limited and they fill up fast! Pre-registration is required.

Whether looking in the sea, sky, forests or ponds, we will be sure to have an exciting day experiencing the remarkable things in the world around us.

Members’ children and grandchildren under the age of 18 are eligible for discounted Member rates on Summer Programs.
