XanaDune!

XanaDune! is our core “in the classroom” and out on the trail programming for elementary and middle
schools students. XanaDune! has also been shown to be highly effective for special needs groups of all
ages. For the classroom visits, education specialists from the Dunes Center bring “hands-on” natural
science activities to your classroom. These 50 minute programs give students a chance to investigate
topics such as Mammals, Birds, Water Science, Plant and Aquatic Life; all centered on life in the dunes.
Then, continue your education experience with a XanaDune! field trip to Oso Flaco Lake.
