K-12 & HOME SCHOOL PROGRAM

The Skagit River Bald Eagle Interpretive Center is located in the pristine Howard Miller Steelhead Park in Rockport, Washington, on the federally designated Wild and Scenic Skagit River. During December and January the river is home to hundreds of eagles feasting on the Chum salmon that are returning to spawn. It’s an exciting time to visit the Skagit!

Our Center offers outdoor, hands-on, minds-on learning experiences for school aged children that  reinforce fundamental concepts in science education. Our focus is the Skagit River ecosystem and we work with teachers (or parents for Home School groups) to tailor the curriculum for required learning goals. Program length is generally 2 hours but can vary based on individual program needs.

Suggested Donation of $5/child. One adult per every six children can attend for free. Additional adults are also suggested donation $5. For questions, please contact us.

GROUP TOURS

If your club, association, or other organized group is interested in learning more about bald eagle migration and the Skagit River ecosystem, please join us for a private program on a weekday in December and January. Program approx. 1.5 hrs. Suggested Donation $5/per person.

Leashed dogs are allowed in the County Park but we discourage our visitors from bringing their dog along on the tours out of consideration of others and wildlife.
