WREN is Wallowa Resources’ Friday field science adventure program for 5th-8th grade students. Each class explores Wallowa County’s natural and cultural history. Students investigate this place through hands-on and self discovery activities.

Every fall and spring get ready for muddy boots, crawling critters, rain, sun, snow, and much more. Each day centers around a theme that guides the day lesson and exploration. Locations vary from day to day and are weather dependent. Classes teach skills in exploring, discussing, analyzing, and evaluating our environment. Join us in a fun, action packed WREN!
