Join educators at the Lyonia Environmental Center to explore the world of bugs and why they're so important to our environment! During an indoor classroom workshop, girls will observe bug specimens under the microscope and try some "bug eyes" for size. Then you will embark on a guided hike through the preserve where you will see these amazing creatures in action. Afterwards, girls will make a bug craft to take home. This program completes all steps for girls to earn their Brownie Bugs Badge. The badge is not included in the program cost and may be purchased from the Citrus Shop. 

Please note: program fees will be collected at check-in.
