Annual Teacher Workshop
The park hosts a teacher workshop annually (usually in December). These workshops offer a variety of learning experiences for professional educators. Our focus is not on teaching classroom techniques; we offer subject matter and resource information teachers can use in the classroom or during visits to the Big Bend area.
