Institutes

Riparian Family Institute - March 29-30, 2008
The Riparian Family Institute is a weekend trip for the entire family that incorporates children’s activities into an atmosphere in which everyone can experience nature and learn together. The program focuses on the rich plant and animal life found along the beautiful San Pedro River. One of the last free-flowing rivers joining Mexico and the United States, the San Pedro provides a green oasis in the desert, and is home to hundreds of species of plants, birds, insects, reptiles, amphibians and mammals. Hosted in cooperation with Pima County Natural Resources, Parks and Recreation and The Nature Conservancy. To register, or for more information, contact Matt Brooks at 622-2230. Registration is limited to 32 participants.

Institute of Desert Ecology - April 17-20, 2008
Since 1970 the Institute of Desert Ecology has provided Tucson Audubon members, the Tucson community, and participants from around the nation the opportunity to learn about the Sonoran Desert from some of those who know and love it best. The enthusiastic and inspired teaching of our own local experts, the spectacular backdrop of the northwest face of the Catalina Mountains, the catered meals, and the camaraderie of all those involved combine to produce 4 days that participants have described as "life changing" and "an experience that will not be forgotten." More information, or contact Matt Brooks at (520) 622-2230.
