Wetland Wonders
Campers will become aquatic ecologists, as they delve into Irvine’s wetland habitats to perform water quality tests and document the biodiversity found in both our ponds and streams. They will analyze their findings to determine the health of each ecosystem, compare the macroinvertebrate communities in each, and learn how these habitats contribute to the overall health of The Chesapeake Bay. This hands-on experience will allow students to realize the impact their local choices can have on our greater environment.
