Our hands-on activities encourage young people to be curious and learn about the environment and how they fit into our place on the planet. Activities at Toadfish Adventures include: fishing, canoeing, oyster hatchery tour, marsh mucking, plant and animal ID hikes, scavenger hunts, arts and crafts, and oyster tonging from our mini watermen’s boat (on land) that kids can climb aboard and replicate this still practiced harvesting method. Plus, on Wednesday night participants will enjoy a cookout, campfire, s'mores! All activities are based at the Environmental Education Center at HPL
Toadfish Adventures run Monday through Friday, with 2 separate age groups that run over 2 consecutive weeks; rising 1st graders to 9 years old August 8 – 12 and students 10-14 years old August 15 - 19. The cost is $250.00 per session.
Toadfish Adventures is led by Bryan Gomes, who has over 2 decades of environmental education experience and certifications, and has held management positions with 2 residential camps in the Annapolis area.
