The Catalina Island Conservancy is proud to protect 88% of the 48,000 acres of Catalina Island and provide what may be the largest outdoor classroom in Los Angeles County. We are thrilled to share more about this new immersive outdoor experience, designed for Los Angeles County youth to adventure into our Island's wild lands. This annual event is made possible by a generous gift from the Hathaway Family and a special collaboration with the Boys and Girls Club of Metro LA. The young explorers, along with adult chaperones, had three days to trek, hike, snorkel, camp, make arts and crafts, and stargaze! Topping off the experience was a falconry lesson led by Dave Long! Talk about soaring to new heights. ?? Check out this video recap! Learning from nature and discovering the great outdoors has never been more fun!
