PVNC PROGRAMS ARE A GREAT GIFT! As a unique gift for your child's or grandchild's classroom friends, why not sponsor a Peace Valley winter in-school program? Or perhaps join with other parents to give this as a holiday gift to your child's teacher in place of the usual trinkets. Topics include Lenape stories and games, animal adaptations, geology, the mad scientist and scientific method, and more. These school programs are one hour in length and cost $50. All take place indoors. A descriptive program brochure is available on request. For scheduling contact Gail Hill at 215-345-7860. She will make the arrangements with your child's teacher.
