GEO Weekly Bulletin - 02/10/25
This week’s bulletin includes many of IEEC's upcoming excursions as well as important deadlines and details regarding our programs!
IEEC Goes to the Academy of Sciences!
Sunday, February 23, 8 am - 7 pm
Get ready for an unforgettable journey into the heart of one of the world’s most fascinating natural history museums: the California Academy of Sciences! On this day trip, we’ll dive deep into the mysteries of our planet, our universe, and the creatures that inhabit it while connecting with the core values of exploration, collaboration, and environmental inquiry. The first 15 people who sign up get to go for FREE! Sign up for IEEC Trips here! Sign up by the 16th!
IEEC Goes to Bodega Bay
Saturday, March 1st, 2 PM-7:30 PM
Spend the day at Bodega Head, enjoying the fresh coastal air and keeping an eye out for whales as they migrate to the colder northern waters. We’ll settle down for a relaxing picnic with snacks, surrounded by beautiful views and good company. Our trip falls around the halfway point of the migration season, giving us a good chance to spot these incredible creatures; fingers crossed! While there will be some walking along trails (which might not all be paved), it’s just a small part of the outing, so don’t let that little walk dissuade you! It’s a perfect opportunity to unwind and connect with nature! Sign Up Deadline is February 21st! Sign up for IEEC Trips here! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about our trips!
