Join JBRPC and the National Park Service for Park Pals on 9/7!

Park Pals is an early childhood family program for children ages 0-6 and their caretaker(s) at the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge. Our September session's focus is shorebirds! What makes a bird a bird? Where do shorebirds build their special nests? How and what do they eat? Explore these questions on a nature walk in the refuge with a Park ranger, along with a themed read-aloud, arts and crafts, and sensory and scientific activities in the visitor center.
