Education programs thrive at the CCNP

The CCNP’s education program continues to grow, serving 2000 elementary students per year and high school students affiliated with the Center for Land-Based Learning’s SLEWS program. The Preserve is also used for students participating in “Nature Bowl” competitions, for scout groups earning merit badges, and as a hands-on laboratory for UC Davis students in conservation biology.  To help teach about the ecosystem, the Conservancy establishes the Cache Creek Resource Model, a replica of how water flows through the watershed.
