Birds are amazing animals with their gorgeous plumage, beautiful songs, and the gift of flight.  Florida is blessed with nearly 550 species of birds!  Join CHEC and Michael Weisensee in exploring the outdoors in search of these feathered wonders.  During this 5-week course the fundamentals of birding will be covered.

Each course will begin with a classroom session at Cedar Point Environmental Park  and continue with field trip sessions in various birding hotspot locations. Program fee is $95 per person. Registration is limited to 7 adult participants at each course.  Courses with less than 3 participants are subject to cancellation by CHEC.   

Refund policy for cancellations initiated by participants:  50% will be refunded for cancellations made at least ten days prior to the course start date.  Sorry - no course date exchanges!

Join CHEC and the Englewood Fishing Club's lifelong fishermen for a 3-hour Family Fun Saturday fishing clinic.  Every quarter at Cedar Point, we will learn the basic fishing knots, fishing rod casting techniques, fish handling and saltwater fishing regulations.

This is a family program for both adults and children.  Program fee is $10.00 per person.  Child participants must be 6 years, or older.  Any person under the age of 18 must be supervised by a parent/guardian.  Program fees apply for all participants ($10.00 per person).

All fishing equipment is included and supplied by the Florida Youth Conservation Commission Network.  

Sorry - no refunds for cancellations initiated by participants. No clinic date exchanges!
