Some of the celestial treasures hidden amongst these stars will be revealed, including galaxies, star clusters, and more.

Starting with Greek Theater and ending with an exploration of Modern Day Musicals, students will get a sense of the work it takes to create a play from start to finish. This hands-on session will culminate in a short performance for family and friends created by your children!

Join the Trustees to celebrate the last evening of the month of March with a night hike through the dunes of the Crane Wildlife Refuge! We’ll hope for the almost-spring temperatures of the month going out like a lamb, but we’ll have a great hike even if the roaring cold lion is still around! At the end of our walk we’ll warm ourselves with hot cider around a beach fire.
The North Shore YMCA has a ton of fun packed into this February Vacation week. Find lots of open time in the gym, pool and gymnasium for you to be together as a family, full day field trips for kids, intensive swim and gymnastics lessons, sports and gymnastics camps and family fitness fun.
Bowling is a fun and active way to spend an evening, rainy afternoon, snow day or vacation day with friends and/or family. No matter what your skill level, bowling will get you together with a group of people who all have the common goal of enjoying the time they are spending together. Bowling centers also have special packages available for bowling parties, and are happy to accommodate large parties of bowlers given a little notice.
The wolf is an amazing survivor in its wild habitat, but human distrust of this predator once pushed it to near extinction. In the documentary, Wolves, we'll meet a pack up-close and learn how environmentalists in the American West worked to protect the wolves and bring them back from the edge of extinction. After the movie, we'll open up the floor to exchange opinions about the wolves. We'll discuss the protection and reintroduction of endangered species, and how the protection of wolves elsewhere can impact protection of rare species in our backyard. Popcorn will be served!
