Turtle Trek Day Program

*Currently on hold until further notice.

This joint program, provided by both the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre (OTTC)and Riverview Park and Zoo, offers a full day of learning.

In this program, classes will visit the OTCC for one-half of the day and be given an overview of their turtle and habitat conservation program. During the other half of the day, classes will visit the Park and Zoo and enjoy time with a trained zoo educator.

You will learn more about ecology, the environment and Ontario's turtles, by connecting your class with nature and the natural world.

This program can hold up to 25 individuals and costs $10 per child. If your group has more than 25 people, simply book another time slot.
