SUMMARY:Virtual Map Reading and 3D Topo Map Take-Home Kit
DESCRIPTION:This guest speaker spotlight program is online and is FREE. The video presentation and resources can be accessed at any time because they are not live. The resources are posted in the Discussion tab of this Facebook event.\n \nStop by the McCloud Nature Center for your FREE 3D topo map model take-home kit! The Nature Center is open Fridays and Saturdays\, 10 am-4 pm. While supplies last. McCloud Nature Park is located just west of Indy\, at 8518 Hughes Road\, North Salem\, IN 46165. Phone number is 765-676-5437.\n \nReady to upgrade your map-reading abilities? If you would really like it if that “topo map” looked a bit less like an abstract painting — this program is for you!

Learn how to read a topographic map by constructing a 3D model.\n \nMeets some requirements for BSA Orienteering and BSA Geocaching; and GSUSA Cadettes Trailblazing. Schedule a meeting at a later time for BSA merit badge counselor Sarah Wolf to sign off on your blue card (email: mccloudnp@hcparks.net).\n \nRecommended for ages 10 through adult.

SUMMARY:Homeschool Ecology Series: Winter Survival
DESCRIPTION:Photo by Indiana DNR\nAnimals use different strategies to survive the winter and younger homeschool students will explore these methods through hands-on activities. Students will stay warm building shelters to mimic animal homes\, playing games\, and looking for signs of wildlife while walking trails. \nFor younger siblings (ages 6-11) of students registered in the Homeschool Ecology Series\, there will be a separate lesson on a similar topic offered concurrently for just $5 per child per session. These lessons have been created specifically for the younger students and are restricted to siblings of registered students in the Homeschool Ecology Series. Parents or guardians must attend with the younger siblings\, as this is not a drop-off program. \nFee: $10/person. \nRecommended for ages 12-18. \nAdvance registration required by Feb. 21. Registration opens on Feb. 1. Register at: https://hcparks.recdesk.com/Community/Program/Detail?programId=537
