DOWNLOAD THE REFRIGERATOR READY FIELD TRIP LIST FOR 2024

The field trips of JBNHS are oriented to nature study. They are free and open to the public. We do, however, sometimes visit sites that charge admission fees, which are the responsibility of the participants. Children are very welcome on field trips, but pets are not. Although there is a brief courtesy waiting period for latecomers, the meeting times are important: please arrive in time to sign up with the leader.

JBNHS FIELD TRIPS ARE BACK!!!

All participants should be aware of existing guidelines and new field trip protocol listed below:
