The Environmental Nature Center is looking for responsible high school students that love nature and working with children to be a part of the Leader in Training (LIT) program for our upcoming Presidents Week and Spring Break Camps!
What is a Leader in Training? "LITs" are amazing high school students that help with Nature Camps. This is a perfect opportunity for volunteers who enjoy working with children.
When?
Spring Break Camp Tucker is April 1 - 5 (in Modjeska Canyon)
Spring Break Camp is April 8 - 12 (ENC in Newport Beach)
Why? Earn community service hours. Get outside and away from screens for a few hours a day! Get some exercise, fresh air, and some sun! Spend time with like minded peers and gain experience and responsibility supervising young children. It provides an excellent experience to include on a resume or college application.

Mission Statement
To provide quality education through hands-on experience with nature.
Description
The Environmental Nature Center, known simply to thousands of visiting students through the years as "The ENC", is 3.5 acres of what was once a litter-filled gully behind Newport Harbor High School. Today, it is a fascinating combination of 14 California native plant communities (ranging from a desert, to an oak woodland, to a fresh water marsh, to a redwood forest), wildlife habitats and walking trails. For over 30 years, the ENC has been shaped and caressed into a landscape for learning, a sanctuary from life's pressures and a place of preservation and instruction. Serving over 13,000 students and thousands of visitors annually, the ENC is recognized as a leader in education providing opportunities for increasing our community's knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the natural world.
