SEND A KID TO CAMP PROGRAM
Hundreds of Dallas area kids explored and learned about our natural world at Dallas' best kept secret, Cedar Ridge Preserve, through the Send A Kid to Camp program, June 22-30.

Entitled "The World Recycles", the program focused on how nature recycles and how humans' part in recycling helps the planet. The children took an exciting hike through the preserve then spent time sketching butterflies in the butterfly garden, investigating animal biofacts and testing their knowledge of recycling in Dallas.
Volunteers from Audubon Dallas (which manages the preserve) and Master Naturalists led them on their hikes. It's all about showing the kids that spending time in nature is educational, fun and exciting since most of them aren't getting that kind of experience otherwise.
Thanks to all those who made this program a huge success!

Audubon Dallas supports the conservation of birds and other wildlife, the protection of habitat and biodiversity, and the provision of education and opportunities for our entire community to observe and appreciate birds and nature.
Audubon Dallas was incorporated in 1973 as a chapter of the National Audubon Society. Today, Audubon Dallas consists of approximately 1,500 members with a focus on birds and wildlife. One of our primary goals is to raise funds in order to expand our current programs, field trips and volunteer efforts in order to reach more children and family groups. We hope these family programs will foster discussions in the home, and make every family aware of the important role it plays in the local environmental community. We teach about our local flora and fauna including the importance of the preservation of local ecosystems through conservation. We publish a bi-monthly newsletter and keep records of the birds of Dallas County. |
