Health & Waiver Form
Getting Here

​Ever wonder what our local organisms get up to after dark? Join CBFS on a Nocturnal Adaptations Hike to truly become a creature of the night. On this approximately 1 mile walk, you'll learn all about the different adaptations that our nocturnal neighbors use to be successful in the dark. We'll focus on our five senses and the similarities and differences while keeping an ear out for some nighttime friends who may be out and about! While this program is after dark, it's not meant to be scary!

Time: August 22, 7:30pm to 9:30pm
September 5, 7pm to 9pm
Tuition: $30 per person
Meeting place: Chincoteague Bay Field Station, 34001 Mill Dam Road, Wallops Island, VA


What participants need to wear/bring to the workshop:
  • Comfortable walking shoes
  • Bug spray
  • Water

Participants under the age of 18 will not be allowed to participate without an adult. All minor participants must be accompanied by an adult at all times. ​
