The
primary role of the Naturalists is to educate the public about the
wonders of Upper Newport Bay. We are fortunate that this can be done
in so many ways and at so many locations in and around the Bay.
- Structured hands-on school programs aligned
with state standards that allow students to learn the importance
of Upper Newport Bay and the wetlands in general.
- Guided water tours that allow the public to
enjoy and find out about the Bay.
- Leisurely guided walking tours that allow young
and old alike to experience the sights and sounds of nature.
- Shark camps and other marine programs that
include catch and release of fish and other marine creatures.
- Scout programs and family programs that are fun
for everyone.
- Community-based restoration programs.

| In
addition to education programs and special events here at the Bay,
outreach is performed to local schools and community events. The
Back Bay Science Center's Sharkmobile is a key part of this outreach
program. In-class curricula, such as the California Coastal
Commission's Our Wetland Our World program, are also available for
use by middle and high schools. |
