Environmental Education is a process aimed at developing a population that is aware of and concerned about the total environment and its associated resource problems, and which has the knowledge, attitudes, motivations, commitments, and skills to work toward solutions to current problems and the prevention of new ones.

Park staff have developed three Traveling Trunks which include a mammal trunk, insect trunk, and water trunk. Area schools can check out these trunks for up to a week (subject to approval by the park), or better yet, request a ranger program at your school. Your school must be within 80 miles of Fritch, TX. Trunks have lesson plans, activities, and various props. They include environmental education in the curriculum. Please contact Park Headquarters for information regarding these trunks: (806) 857-3151, M - F 8:00 to 4:30, or e-mail us.

TRUNKS ARE TOO LARGE TO BE SHIPPED OR MAILED.
