Get out and discover YOUR Onset Bay with OBC staff. Learn about the beautiful nature that surrounds us with engaging activities around the water. Open to children and families of all ages, this event series is ongoing throughout September and October. Activities vary week-to week, and may include any of the following: fishing and crabbing; beach exploration and play; shell, plant, and animal identification; nature arts & crafts; bay ecology exploration; or environmental action efforts. Contact weldon@savebuzzardsbay.org to learn about this week’s activities, or be surprised with a fun activity when you arrive! All equipment will be provided. Participants will not be swimming or getting excessively wet, but please come prepared for the day’s weather including appropriate layers for warmth, comfortable shoes (that may get wet), and extra clothing and shoes to change if necessary.
