Upcoming events at PBCB


Family Science Night: Thursday, October 17th at 5 PM

PBCB is excited to expand our Marine Science program by offering a Family Science Night! Kids, parents, and relatives alike are welcome to attend this 1-hour evening program hosted by our Science Coordinator in the Hillside Classroom. These nights of scientific discovery will include exploring vertebrates and invertebrates, learning tectonic plates and chemistry through the building (and exploding!) of volcanoes, and creating “sea-slime” to test the properties of water.

This program is appropriate for ages 4+ and their families. The cost is $20 per family (up to 4 people). Pre-registration is required through MyRec.

School Vacation Science & Nature Week:

February 17 to 21, and April 21 to 25

This program will offer students ages 8-10 a taste of our summer science camp experience as a 1-week school break experience. This all-day program runs 9 AM to 3 PM and includes a blend of hands-on science experiments, outdoor exploration, camp games, and art. Students may learn about local ecology while exploring the Pleasant Bay shoreline, complete engineering challenges and water quality testing, and end their days with creative projects and games. All activities will be weather-dependent, but we’ll have a blast no matter what Cape Cod winter and spring throw at us!

$300/week. Registration for February break program begins Tuesday, November 5th, 2024. Registration info for April break program to come. For more information, please contact our Science Coordinator, Jeanna Santana. For registration inquiries, please contact Registrar Ellen Peterson.
