The purpose of the Beulah Beach Outdoor Education Program is to provide and enrich the educational experiences of young people by utilizing the resources of creation as seen in our natural surroundings
We accomplish this by:
We invite you to come for an Outdoor Education Experience!

Spring (April-May)
-or-
Fall (Sept-Oct)
We work with 5th and 6th grade teachers from participating schools to custom design an Outdoor Education experience for their students.
Outdoor Education is an educational highlight of over a dozen schools that have partnered with us in the past and we desire to provide you with a tailor made educational experience that will not be forgotten! All of our instructors have extensive education, camping, and outdoor backgrounds. We are here to provide a positive experience with dedicated staff in a safe environment for your school group.
Curriculum
Come prepared to discover and be amazed by the many mysteries of creation
Planet Earth & Study
While trying to solve a clever mystery story, students will gather several types of soil like sand, loam, clay, mud, and gravel. Though the process of experimentation, they will learn about the different properties of soil and how each one is used. Hopefully, the mystery will be solved at the end of class.
Trees
Students will learn how to identify various types of trees by their distinct leaf patterns and different barks. They will also learn how to guess the age of living trees by counting rings on stumps. Classes will have the opportunity to make leaf and bark rubbings (patterns) which can be taken back to the classroom and displayed.
Wetlands
Boots and magnifying glasses are required for this class! Students will venture into our lagoon to study the animals and plants, which compose this unique ecosystem. While studying our lagoon area, students will have the opportunity to see many interesting things including an endangered plant, goose nesting, and possibly the mating rituals of carp.
Exploratory Sciences
Sir Isaac Newton discovered and wrote three sets of laws about the way things move and interact with one another. Activities such as rolling down a hill, canoeing, paddleball, hill soccer, among others will help students gain a better understanding of Newton’s Laws.
Orienteering
After learning the basic features of a map and compass along with their proper uses, students will be sent out on a short hike to demonstrate their recently acquired skills. Along the way, students will find clues to help them understand the importance of maps and compasses.
Wind, Weather, & Kites
Wind meter reading and kite flying will help students to learn about weather patterns, wind strength, and how weather affects our daily lives. Students will discover many ways in which the wind can be representation of nature.
Fire Building
Students will be taught how to construct and light various types of fires along with safety precautions and the proper techniques for extinguishing fires. In this class, students will be given the opportunity to enjoy a snack cooked over their fire when finished.
Animal Study
Birds
With binoculars in hand, students will venture to identify various birds at the beach, in wetlands, and in the woods. We may even spot the eagle and hawk who nest nearby. Students will learn about different classes of birds and what special features help make birds unique. Along the way, students may gather materials that birds use to build their nest and then use their own hands to weave all their materials into a nest -which can be proudly displayed in the classroom.
Tracking & Nature Skills
Students will find and identify various tracks on a two-mile hike through the woods, as well as studying animal habits, ecosystems, and the trophic pyramid and predator/prey relationships. The class will primarily focus on different types of animals found at Beulah Beach and how they interact/relate to one another. Students will be taught about deer, raccoons, squirrels, chipmunks, and eastern cotton tail rabbits.
