LUNCH
A pizza lunch will be served. For those individuals with certain dietary restrictions, we highly suggest bringing your own lunch as the provided lunch may not be as accommodable. (Please note that breakfast is not provided and there is a lot to explore before lunch, so please eat before coming!)
Lunch Presentation
We are excited to welcome the Ohio Bird Sanctuary to this year’s Exploring STEM Day during lunch for a live bird of prey presentation! Students will be introduced to two of the Sanctuary’s educational outreach birds and learn about their habitats and conservation.
The raptor avian ambassadors will wear leather anklets and straps (jesses), securely held by staff at all times for safety.
