Nature Boats
Come sail away with the Fraser River Discovery Centre! This month we’re headed to Derby Reach Regional Park in Langley to build our very own nature boats! We’ll explore what kinds of objects float, scavenge for building materials, and learn a few simple boat-making techniques. Then, we’ll watch our boats set sail on their inaugural voyage!
This event will take place rain or shine, so please come prepared for the weather.
