Daily Ranger Programs
Interpretive
Short Talks year-round bring to life the experiences of the
great 19th century expedition exploring the newly purchased Louisiana
territory and searching for a "Northwest Passage" from
the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. Trails outdoors invite visitors
to explore the prairie landscape around the Interpretive Center,
including landscaping.
Summer Ranger Programs
Throughout a summer day, join a Ranger for:
- a 15-minute Interpretive Short Talk indoors or outdoors, depending
on the weather and the talk;
- an impromptu Interpretive Station Activity indoors; or
- a 35- to 45-minute Interpretive
Activity indoors or outdoors, depending on the weather and
the activity.
Another place to join a Ranger for a summer activity is River Camp,
a demonstration area on the bank of the Missouri River below the
Interpretive Center. River Camp activities are offered 9:30 am to
noon only.
To find out more about any of these Ranger programs and activities,
check
our on-line Calendar of Events, call ahead, or ask the front
desk docent when you arrive. |
Lewis
and Clark Institute
Each
year, the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Association, the Interpretive
Centers cooperating association, sponsors a series
of engaging field trips, workshops and experiences for
adults in which participants explore fascinating aspects
of history, geography, natural sciences and native cultures; explore
sites along the Trail; learn skills of the expedition period; and
visit other sites with themes related to exploration of the West.
Class sizes are intentionally small to create an intimate feel.
