As the Water Center’s 20th anniversary year celebration comes to a close, it’s time to take a look back at some favorite memories, moments, and activities from the past 20 years at the last Second Saturday of the year on December 10, 2016.
Second Saturdays at the Water Resources Education Center are not only fun, they’re free! Each second Saturday of the month, from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm, kids and their families are invited to explore a different topic through hands-on activities, games and stories.
December’s Second Saturday will focus on seasonal crafts and making gifts out of recycled materials, along with fun-filled learning. Leap into a fascinating frog-tongue investigation or explore what it’s like to be a creature of the night. Investigate the properties of water with pennies and paper clips. Paint a holiday-themed rock to take home or hide for others to find!
Enjoy a special Second Saturday cup of hot cocoa and an afternoon of fables and lore by popular local storyteller, Will Hornyak. Hornyak will entertain and inspire all ages with stories about water and the natural world.
Second Saturdays take place from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm at the Water Resources Education Center, 4600 SE Columbia Way, Vancouver. For more information, call the Water Center at 360-487-7111.
