Every other Wednesday starting in June and going through the end of August, our staff will hold an hour long water-based activity at Creations from 1 – 2 pm. On August 25th, 2021, the Panhandle Chapter of Trout Unlimited Bull Trout Educator will be joining us as we talk about fish in Lake Pend Oreille and then design our own fish!

In the unique location of the Cedar Street Bridge over Sand Creek and just a few minutes away from Lake Pend Oreille, we can encourage kids to not only learn about water-based science, but to step outside or look out the window at what’s happening beneath our feet. The proximity to two important water bodies in our community can help emphasize the importance of caring about our waterways and understanding their significance in our lives.

These activities will help young kids better understand the intricate nature of water and aquatic habitats, the importance of protecting our natural resources, and inspire them to be environmental advocates and stewards.
