COVID-19 Response for field trips
Our organization is continuing work during COVID-19 in ways that ensure the safety and well being of our participants and staff. Some indoor learning opportunities may not be available due to COVID-19 and group numbers will be limited. Fortunately, outdoor education models typically can integrate better distancing procedures naturally not to mention strong and memorable learning opportunities.
We recognize that there is a lot of uncertainty and best practices and educational models will be ever-changing. We will be working with the most currently available safety protocols from the CDC, Oregon Health Authority, and school districts to protect students.
