Discovery Day: Sunset Paddle and Creatures of the Night

  • The Discovery Center 3401 Reservoir Drive Philadelphia, PA, 19121 United States (map)

Let's explore the Discovery Center at night for Discovery Day! These monthly events are co-hosted by Philadelphia Outward Bound School (POBS) and Audubon Mid-Atlantic (AMA). Each month provides opportunities for community members to experience different adventures and activities related to the outdoors.

POBS will host a sunset paddle on our reservoir from 5-8pm. They will offer instruction in basic paddling skills and canoe safety.  Ages 8 and up, and registration is first come, first served!

Audubon Mid-Atlantic and Glen Foerd will lead an evening walk to survey for bats, birds and insects from 7:30-9:30pm. We'll have binoculars for people to use, as well as other tools to identify what we find. Lastly, we'll chat about ways we can get involved to maintain our ecosystem here and beyond. Registration link coming soon! For more information, reach out to audubon@discoveryphila.org. Learn more about Glen Foerd at glenfoerd.org.
