Legacy, Inc., have partnered with the Environmental Education Association of Alabama (EEAA) and ALAPARC to provide six member workshops around the state of Alabama focused on Reptile and Amphibians. The Hooray for Herps workshops, which start at 9:00 am and end at 3:30 pm, include content information and current research from a herpetologist, hands-on experiences with live animals, and classroom activities relating to the animals, habitat and conservation. Lunch will be provided for all workshop participants, as well as a teaching kit worth over $100. After the workshop, attendees may choose to participate in an optional field trip to go looking for some of these incredible animals.
