Staying Safe While We Stay Connected – Field Trip Safety Guidelines for 2022

2022 continues to be a dynamic situation with COVID, and we will update our safety guidelines as needed throughout the season. Find details and updates on our Current COVID Guidelines webpage.

We anticipate opening the season with these safety guidelines:

• Small group sizes with social distancing.
• Indoor trips: Face masks may be required.*
• Outdoor trips: Face masks are optional, though we ask that you bring one to wear in times when social distancing is not possible.*

*Face masks may be required on some Field Trips due to leader preference or local/facility policies, to be determined closer to date of trip.

What makes our Field Trips special?

Our Field Trips generally run May through October each year and highlight the best of Wisconsin’s natural world. We offer unique opportunities for all ages to explore Wisconsin’s lands, waters and wildlife by foot, bike, and boat.

Our Field Trips are led by professional natualists who share their love and knowledge of Wisconsin’s lands, waters, and wildlife. Enjoy up-close experiences to Wisconsin’s natural world and learn about the critical conservation work being done to protect it.
