Social Events
Events that allow parents and children to develop friendships with others in the group.
Wildlife Encounters
We welcome back our old friends from Wildlife Encounters. If you have ever attended one of their presentations, you know how exciting and engaging they have been with our groups. Lots of hands on learning and unexpected treats.
Well, they are coming back and will be bringing some of their animal friends. This will be a complimentary experience to our Zoology 3 Land Creatures activities so we will try to invite some animals we have spoken about this year.
Please visit their website to familiarize yourself with them or to answer any questions you may have.
Only register children ages 5+

Sunapee State Beach
Please join us for a fun filled day as we enjoy one of the most scenic swims. Pack snacks and/or lunch. Please make sure to arrive early. Sunapee also has a concession stand and a playground. Check out their website here for further details.
Fees
Admission is $5 for adults; $2 for children ages 6-11; children ages 5 and under and NH residents age 65 and over are admitted free. Season passes are available.
Operating Schedule
Due to the popularity of Mount Sunapee State Park's beach area on nice weekends and holidays, the beach will most likely sell-out in the morning hours. Once the beach area reaches capacity additional beach goers cannot be admitted due to safety concerns.
Dates and times are weather dependent and subject to change without notice. For up to date hours, please call the park directly.

Join us for a day of fun in the sun! Pack a lunch and your beach gear for a day with your WHE friends. Don't forget to bring your beach blanket, umbrella, beach chair, boogie boards, shade, sun screen etc. Meet us on the far right of the beach near the jetty. There is a $15 parking fee for this beach.
