Upcoming Science Safaris
YSI has added several Science Safaris between our three locations all the way through May! YSI's Science Safaris are educational programs that not only bring you and your family into nature, but we will also teach you facts about your surroundings that you may not have known! These outdoor events are rain or shine, so please dress accordingly. YSI's Science Safari programs are designed for families, so please register each attending member. A registered adult must accompany their child(ren) for these events. We thank you for your cooperation and understanding!
Cancellation Policy: Cancellations made within 8 days of the registrant's Science Safari date may receive a full refund. Cancellations made within 7 days of the Science Safari's date will result in no refund. Registration fees are non-transferable.
YSI has incorporated all COVID-19 guidelines that follow all County and State protocols. YSI recommends every registrant ages 2 and over wear a face mask while practicing social distancing. We appreciate your cooperation in helping YSI keep you safe and healthy while enjoying the beauty of nature.
Scholarships are also available to low-income families in Santa Clara County. For more information, please email programs@ysi-ca.org or call 408-356-4945 x12.
