DNREC sets dates for ‘Small Fry Adventures’ family outings
By Mike FinneySMYRNA — The Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control invites families with young children to come out to its Aquatic Resources Education Center near Smyrna and enjoy exciting outdoors programs called “Small Fry Adventures” this summer.
These events, put on by the DNREC Division of Fish and Wildlife, are geared toward giving youngsters ages 4 to 7 the opportunity to satisfy their curiosity about fish and other aquatic critters that live in the tidal salt marsh.
Kids participating with their families will have a chance to view marine life in the Aquatic Resources Education Center aquariums, make a simple craft with an aquatic theme and participate in activities to learn about some of the aquatic life found in Delaware.
“Small Fry Adventures” programs are scheduled for Tuesday, July 25; Tuesday, Aug. 8; and Tuesday, Aug.15.
All three programs will take place from 10 to 11:30 a.m. at the Aquatic Resources Education Center at 2520 Lighthouse Road in Smyrna.
Pre-registration is required to ensure enough supplies are on hand for these free programs. To pre-register for Small Fry Adventures or for more information about the program and others offered by AREC, email Pearlie.Franklin@delaware.gov or call 302-735-8689.
