How is the Nature Centre adapting programming in COVID-19?

Taylor Hecker, Friends of HSNC Society Secretary and HSNC Rep, as Buck Stotwell as part of the Outdoor Adventure Club series.

As a precautionary measure, the Helen Schuler Nature Centre and all City of Lethbridge recreation and culture facilities have been closed since March 16, 2020 until further notice. The health and safety of our community is our number one priority as we focus on minimizing the transmission of COVID-19. 

Given the facility closure and restrictions on 'normal' every day life, the Nature Centre has adapted programming to meet the needs of our community. You can learn more about each program by visiting the Helen Schuler Nature Centre's website at www.Lethbridge.ca/Nature
