Current programs and events

WHAT's NEW? Our Summer 2010 Interpretive Program Schedule is here! We're offering a full suite of interpretive programs for July and August 2010, including rainforest, intertidal, and mudflat walks. New this year is an interpretive geology walk! And don't forget our Young Naturalists Program, every Friday from 9:30 to 11 am for kids aged 7 to 11. For details, click on our schedule here. Welcome to our 2010 Summer Interns! The Raincoast Education Society is proud to announce that our 2010 summer interns are Estella Charleson and Ava Hansen. Both grew up in Clayoquot Sound and are passionate about the natural and cultural history of the area. We're thrilled to have them working with us this summer! Interpretive Walks on Ucluelet's Wild Pacific Trail this summer! Join RES volunteer naturalist Ava Barany every Thursday from 10 am to 11:30 am for an interpretive walk on the Wild Pacific Trail in Ucluelet. Meet Ava at the 0 km mark of the Lighhouse Loop - in the main parking lot on Coast Guard Drive (July 8 - Aug 26). By donation.

2010 programs

Interpretive walks, presentations & more

After a busy summer, we hope you’ve got time to spend outdoors learning about birds, mushrooms and much more! Or, on a wet and rainy night join us for a slideshow given by some of our well-travelled local residents or by a visiting researcher or naturalist. Download a pdf of upcoming events and stick it on your fridge. This list changes often, so check back for updates, and don’t forget to join our Natural History E-List…

School Programs

We offer school programs for both local and visiting elementary and secondary school groups. We can visit your classroom (Ucluelet, Tofino and Clayoquot Sound only) or you can bring your class to us for an indoor or outdoor program. Programs can be modified to fit your curriculum and location. Please phone us at 250.725.2560 or e-mail info@raincoasteducation.org for more information and to register for a program.
