MYSTERY TRACKS GAME
|
Join experienced naturalist Steve Engel as he guides this fun and creative animal tracks game. Steve is an experienced outdoor science educator, has worked for the Audubon Society, and currently runs the City of Hillsboro Parks Nature Program. He has volunteered his personal collection of exceptional plaster track casts, collected from the Pacific Northwest and around the world.
You'll investigate and answer questions on these amazing plaster track casts in teams of 3-4 people. No need to come with a team, you'll be sorted into one as you arrive. Have someone you really want to be on a team with? -Go ahead and buy them a ticket! Each correct answer moves your team closer to victory. Don't forget, you can purchase clues that will progress your learning and your team's chances for success - and your donations directly support Cascadia Wild! The purchase of clues is not required to participate, but they will undoubtedly help you crack the case of whodunit. |
