SUMMARY:Poverty Encounter Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:What: A group visit to Poverty Encounter. \n“An immersive\, interactive experience\, Poverty Encounter provides a unique understanding of the impact of living in poverty\, and opportunities to make a difference.” \n\nEncountering Poverty\n\n\n\n\nby Lynn Phillips\, Poverty Encounter at Children’s Hunger Fund \nHave you ever heard your children say\, “I’m starving\,” “there’s nothing to eat\,” or “I don’t like this meal!”? Do you wish your children had a greater appreciation for what they have? As a homeschool mother of four\, it pained me to hear my boys’ lack of gratitude for all the Lord had given them. One of the reasons we homeschooled was to teach our kids about who God is and that they can play a part in His plans. My husband and I wondered how we could open our children’s eyes to the abundance they had before them. \nRead the rest of this article at http://www.homeschool411.com/family/encountering-poverty/ \nWhen: Friday\, December 3rd\, 9:30-11:30 am:  Please arrive 10-15 minutes before your reservation time and check in at the Poverty Encounter entrance of the building.  Each tour is 90 minutes with a 30-minute service activity during which guests will be able to pack food for families in need.  There is a considerable amount of walking and standing throughout the experience so please dress comfortably. \nInformation from Poverty Encounter:  All guests (age 2 and older) are required to wear a mask regardless of vaccination status. \nCost: $7 per person ages 6 and up.  5 and under\, free.  Paid in advance.  Sales for this event will close two weeks before the event on November 22nd at Noon . This is what they ask so that they can work out scheduling in preparation for our event.   They have created a special link just for our group\, to purchase tickets online. \nTo sign up for this field trip: \,Visit this link  and purchase your tickets now.  Then\, please enter your information on this Google Sheet.  Your rsvp for this field trip is not secured until you have purchased your tickets via the link above. \n

SUMMARY:Field Trip: Riley's Farm Living History Revolutionary War Adventure
DESCRIPTION:Woo hoo!  I scheduled a field trip to the amazing Riley’s Farm!  If you haven’t heard of Riley’s Farm\, it is owned and run by a Christian family who are passionate about history and freedom.    If you want to know more about Riley’s Farm you van visit their website https://rileysfarm.com/ . \nWhat: Revolutionary War Adventure Field Trip: this is an amazing living history program.  Read all the fun details here: https://rileysfarm.com/index.php/living-history/revolutionarywar/ \nWho: All ACHEV members are welcome.  Riley’s Farm is very family and homeschool friendly.  This field trip will be fun for all ages.  This is a fun field trip to bring Grandma and Grandpa or Auntie along for\, especially if they are into history and watching your kids do homeschooley stuff =) \nTime: The field trip runs from 10am-2pm. You must arrive at least 15 minutes early\, by 9:45am.  It is a long drive so give yourself plenty of time to arrive and account for traffic.  You will want to have time to visit the restroom before we start and maybe place a pie order for later.  I am going to need some time to check everyone in and make sure everyone has their stickers showing what group they belong to.  The drive is admittedly very long (but very much worth it)\, so please leave early enough to allow time for traffic or other unforeseen delays. \nHow Much: $20 per person\, including adults.  Babies/toddlers 2 years old and younger are free.  If they are 3 and over\, they need a ticket.  This is a significant discount per person for registering as a group of 30+.  I need at least 30 people paid by 10/28/21 to make this happen.  I have to sign a contract and personally guarantee payment as well as make a deposit\, so I have to collect payment in advance from everyone by October 28th.  They will only adjust 10% of the total price for no-shows/cancellations after that date\, which depending on our numbers\, will mean that I can only afford to refund maybe 3 tickets if there are no-shows or last minute cancellations. You can send a check to Bonnie Adair at 174 Granada Street\, Camarillo\, CA 93010\, meet up with me in person and give me cash or check\, send me $ via Zelle \, or Paypal me at https://paypal.me/bonniemaeadair?locale.x=en_US \nWhere: 12261 S. Oak Glen Rd.\, Oak Glen\, CA 92399 ***GPS Databases are often wrong for the farm\, please use their directions https://rileysfarm.com/index.php/map/ \nLunch: There is a “soldier’s ration of lemonade\, cornbread\, cheese\, an apple and dried beef provided for everyone\, but the ration is modest (especially if you have a teenage boy)\, so you will probably want to either pack some extra food\, or you can buy food from the bakery.  Their food and pies are really good\, by the way\, and I highly recommend them =)  I always buy an extra whole apple pie and whole chicken pot pie to take home for the next day.  Such a treat!  Also\, they recommend you order ahead of time (you can order online or on-site in the morning when we arrive. Here is the most current menu and should be a close idea of what will be available https://rileysfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/cc_menu_2wide_web.jpg \nMisc: This field trip is outdoors.  Please check the weather ahead of time\, wear layers\, bring hats and sunscreen\, extra water and snacks\, and be prepared for a long day. \nSign Up: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tt_HyUm7isW5EyApEPycJUd5v9QiW8M0DDIcV_6n3og/edit#gid=0 \nPlease email me if you have any questions\, or need help signing up. \nThanks\, \nBonnie Adair \n805-504-6457 \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

DESCRIPTION:**Update 3/14/20 The Reagan Library is closed until further notice** \nWhat: This is a Self Guided Tour of the Reagan Library & Museum and the special exhibit Egypt’s Lost Cities.  Unfortunately\, the Reagan Library does not offer guided tours for homeschool groups.  Here is some information about the special exhibit https://www.reaganfoundation.org/library-museum/special-exhibits/lost-cities/ .   You can stay at the museum as long as you like.  They recommend allowing 2.5-3 hours to view the exhibits. \nWho: Everyone.  We need a minimum of 10 students in order to qualify as a homeschool group and get discounted admission into the library.  If we do not get 10 students\, we will have to cancel. \nCost: $13.95 per student ages 3-17 (this is the cost of the special exhibit).  Adults are full price at $29.95.   Children 2 and under are free.  I need payment at least two weeks in advance.  You can mail a check to me: Bonnie Adair\, 174 Granada Street\, Camarillo\, CA 93010 or paypal me at https://paypal.me/bonniemaeadair?locale.x=en_US \nWhat You Need to Know: \n\nAlthough this exhibition is appropriate for people of all ages – and includes great history lessons for children – it’s important to remember that these statues and sculptures were created over 1\,200 years ago in Egypt.  As such\, a few of the sculptures feature era-specific depictions of men and women without clothing\, or with very limited clothing.\nThe students must stay with a chaperone at all times during their visit here at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and we enforce a strict code of behavioral conduct.

SUMMARY:**Cancelled**Field Trip - Guide Dogs of America
DESCRIPTION:**Update 3/12/20**I am sorry\, but GDA has cancelled all tours due to the Coronavirus scare.  We will try to reschedule for June. \nWhat: Tour of Guide Dogs of America Facility.   \n\nIn this field trip\, students will have the opportunity to learn how guide dogs are trained\, how they could become a trainer or get involved in other ways to help with the GDA mission\, learn more about the challenges blind people face\, and how to act if they encounter a Guide Dog.\nIf a class is not in session\, the group will be visiting the dormitory area where the\nstudents stay for 21 days while training with their guide dogs. The children should\nconduct themselves in a mannerly way\, asking questions one at a time.\nYou will have a kennel visit where you will have an opportunity to see and interact\, in a\nlimited fashion with a group of dogs. Children need to be well behaved and avoid\nmaking the dogs nutty!\nGuide Dogs of America (GDA) has been offering guide dog mobility services\, free of charge\, to qualified blind and visually impaired individuals\, since 1948. GDA breeds\, raises and trains Labrador Retrievers\, Golden Retrievers and German Shepherds to be partnered with blind men and women living in the United States and Canada.\n\nWho: Students ages 9 and up only and parents.  Younger siblings will not be permitted to attend the field trip.  We need a minimum of 15 students in attendance or we will have to cancel this field trip. \nCost: Free \nWhat You Need To Know: \n\nRules of Conduct2 – Copy\nThe more the kids know about the whole process prior to our arrival the more they will get out of the presentation (i.e. what is a guide dog? How do they help?).  Please go over these materials with your students: Q&A\, Student Worksheet/Questions for Review\, GDA Answer Sheet 4-8\, HandDrawnDog\, CLASSROOM EXERCISES\, Overview&MeetingaGDAteam\, GDA booklist-non-fic 4-8\nHave the children formulate questions that they might like to ask.\nThere is no charge for our visit or tour of course\, and you are under no obligation to do anything.  However\, the children are never too young to realize that this is primarily a volunteer effort and we find that they are much more enthusiastic about the program if they feel they are doing their part.  Take a peek at the how children can help document and see if you might be interested in “partnering” with Guide Dogs of America.  Also\, you can view Giving Opportunities.\n Each child can contribute a dog toy that we use for our puppies that are in the kennel or add to  gift baskets for our Open House Silent Auction and it can be the “gift that keeps on giving” since people pay good money for our lovely baskets and it all goes to support GDA.\nno food products for the pups\, not even homemade dog cookies – we have our puppies on a very specific diet and don’t want any upset tummies.\nVisitors are not allowed to have lunch on the school grounds. GDA can provide\ndirections to a nearby public park\, which would be suitable for a picnic after your tour.\nSign Up Using the Google Sheet below\n\n

SUMMARY:Blueberry Picking Field Trip One Acre Farm
DESCRIPTION:What: One Acre Farm is only open to the public on Saturdays\, and we have arranged a special field trip so that we can pick together on Friday March 20th.  One Acre Farm is just outside of Camarillo in the Santa Rosa Valley.    Co-Owner Scott Bahler is excited to share with our kids his knowledge of healthy eating habits\, organic farming\, varieties of blueberries\, how to start farming\, and the rewards and challenges they face being small farmers.  He will also answer questions anyone has.  Here is an article the VC Star did on them last year.  You can learn a little about them by reading: https://www.vcstar.com/story/life/2019/03/07/one-acre-farm-camarillo-organic-blueberries/3070997002/ \nMost likely there will also be organic strawberries available for picking\, though I don’t know the price for those yet. \n \n \n  \nWho: Everyone.  This field trip is family friendly. \nCost: Field Trip is free\, and you are welcome to pick blueberries for $3.50 per 6 oz container. \nDetails: \n\nWear closed toe shoes.\nDo not bring dogs.\nI do not recommend bringing a stroller.  We will be given golf cart rides (the kids’ favorite part) up to the acre.  Toddlers can walk around and pick berries (or play with sticks and dirt)\, and it would be a good idea to have a carrier if you are bringing a baby.\nDress in layers\, wear sunscreen & hats\, bring water.\nThere are nice bathrooms below the parking lot\, but there are no bathrooms near the acre where we are picking.\nStay and pick as long as you like\, and leave when you are ready\n\nSign Up using the link below.

SUMMARY:Poverty Encounter Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:What: A group visit to Poverty Encounter\, an amazing ministry that I learned about while at the CHEA conference. \n“An immersive\, interactive experience\, Poverty Encounter provides a unique understanding of the impact of living in poverty\, and opportunities to make a difference.” \n\nEncountering Poverty\n\n\n\n\nby Lynn Phillips\, Poverty Encounter at Children’s Hunger Fund \nHave you ever heard your children say\, “I’m starving\,” “there’s nothing to eat\,” or “I don’t like this meal!”? Do you wish your children had a greater appreciation for what they have? As a homeschool mother of four\, it pained me to hear my boys’ lack of gratitude for all the Lord had given them. One of the reasons we homeschooled was to teach our kids about who God is and that they can play a part in His plans. My husband and I wondered how we could open our children’s eyes to the abundance they had before them. \nRead the rest of this article at http://www.homeschool411.com/family/encountering-poverty/ \nWhen: Tuesday\, December 10th\, 10 am-12 pm:  Please arrive 10 minutes before your reservation time and check in at the Poverty Encounter entrance of the building.  Each tour is 90 minutes with a 30-minute service activity during which guests will be able to pack food for families in need.  There is a considerable amount of walking and standing throughout the experience so please dress comfortably. \nCost: $7 per person ages 6 and up.  5 and under\, free.  Paid in advance.  Sales for this event will close two weeks before the event on November 26th at 10AM. This is what they ask so that they can work out scheduling in preparation for our event.   They have created a special link just for our group\, to purchase tickets online. \nTo sign up for this field trip: \,Visit this link  and purchase your tickets now.  Then\, please enter your information on this Google Sheet \nMore Info: Poverty Encounter FIeld Trip Info \n

The students may explore the Interactive Media Theater but must do so in groups of 7 or fewer and must be accompanied by a chaperone. \nFood and Drink: Please have your students leave their backpacks and water bottles in the car. We do not have any area within the museum for field trips to eat lunch. Most of our field trips that bring lunches\, eat at the grassy area right next to MOXI or walk down to the sitting wall at the beach. \nEngineering Exploration Lab Information: \nYour group will go into the Engineering Exploration lab at 10:00 AM for about 50 minutes. We only need to have teachers and a chaperone or two in the lab during this time. The other chaperones can either be out on the museum floor or they can grab a coffee out on State street (no food or drink allowed in the museum) and meet the group when they are finished at around 11:00 AM. \nParking:  Most of our visitors park in the train station parking lot (right next to MOXI). The first 75 minutes are free and every additional hour is $1.50. There is limited free street parking nearby. Additional parking can be found in any of the nearby Santa Barbara city lots. \nAddress:   125 State Street\, Santa Barbara\, CA 93101 \nMuseum Phone: 805.770.5012 \nWeb: moxi.org   |   @MOXIsb

It also features appropriate fire and life safety lessons\nTours generally last between 30 – 45 minutes.\nVCFD participation is subject to department availability and may be interrupted for emergency services.\n\nWho: Everyone \nCost: Free \nTime: 10-about 11 am.  Please arrive at 9:50 so we can assemble and be ready to start on time.  Thanks! \nRead below for information about this station and all the cool trucks they have\, with links to pictures and information about the trucks. \nStation 50 History \nFire Station 50 serves the Camarillo Airport\, the western portion of the City of Camarillo and unincorporated portions of the Oxnard Plain. It is also the headquarters for Division 1. Situated on the flight line of the airport\, the original station was inherited from the U.S. Air Force by the airport authority and leased at no cost to the fire district in exchange for fire protection on the airport. The station was originally built as a temporary building in 1954 and never updated. A new station 50\, located off Las Posas Road for better access to western Camarillo\, was completed in early 2001. The Airport Fire Station is currently the district’s hazardous materials response station and the District’s Hazmat Officer is assigned here. The aircraft fire/recue vehicle also operates out of here. In 2006 a Paramedic Squad with two Paramedic/Firefighters went into service at Station 50. It is staffed daily by five firefighters and houses an engine (Engine 50); a crash truck (Crash 50); a tractor-trailer Haz-Mat unit (Hazmat 50); a paramedic squad(Squad 50); a foam unit (Foam 50) and a utility pickup(Utility 50). Also assigned to Station 50 are two De-Con trailers used for decontamination at Haz-Mat incidents.

SUMMARY:CASA Getty Villa Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:CASA has invited ACHEV to join them on another fun field trip!  We are invited to go to the Getty Villa!\n\nDate: September 18\, 2019\n\nTime: 9:30 AM to 11 AM\n\nCost: free\n\nWho: ACHEV Members 6 years old & older\n\n\n\nDescription:\nLet’s kick off the school year together while viewing 7\,000 years of ancient art\, from the end of the Stone Age to the fall of the Roman Empire at a field trip to the Getty Villa! The Villa is a museum that is a recreation of an ancient Roman country house. “It offers a taste of life in the first century A.D.”\n\nOur guided visit at the Villa will be from 10-11 am and will be taught by a Gallery Docent. Please arrive at 9:30 to find parking and meet up with our group. During the visit\, students will study a limited number of objects in depth rather than tour the entire collection. Our lesson will be highly participatory. Students will work in small groups and engage in discussion\, writing\, role-playing\, and\, in some cases\, art-making activities. \nWe need at least 15 students to attend to guarantee a docent. I have reserved spots for 20 students so we can have two groups of 10 with two docents. Only one parent per family will be able to attend the tour since the gallery rooms are small. \nAfter the tour ends at 11\, their picnic area is reserved for us from 11-11:30. If you choose to bring a picnic lunch\, please bring it with you after you park and the Villa will store them for us. Please use small lunch bags since their storage is limited. \nAfter lunch\, their family room is open to us. This is a great “hands on” area especially for younger kids. Self guided audio tours are also available at this time. \nFor more information about the Villa\, please visit: https://www.getty.edu/visit/villa/ \nPlease contact Amy Leite if you are interested in joining this tour.

SUMMARY:Bird Museum Tour + Lab
DESCRIPTION:Come see the largest collections of birds’ eggs and nests in the world!! \nThe Western Foundation of Vertebrate Zoology (WFVZ) has more than a million specimens\, and a very large collection of bird study skins and mounts (nearly 70\,000).  Tours at the WFVZ are of our vast collection of avian (bird) materials that are primarily from the 1850s through 1950s. Tours are led by biologists and scientists who work at the museum. \nThese are the topics that will be covered during the tour: \n(1) The history of the collections and the scientific uses for them; how the materials are curated;\n(2) The diversity of birds of the world;\n(3)The relationship of birds to NGSS topics including natural selection and adaptation\, habitat\, and the impacts that humans have on wildlife;\n(4) Time for students to wander through the materials of the collections on their own! (A self-guided exercise can be provided to students during this portion of the tour if the teacher desires) \nAfter the tour\, students from 6th-12th grade and parents will go into a classroom for a hands on\, interactive lab called “What Bird is That?” with the scientists that work at the museum.  They will work with each other and the instructors on taxonomy\, learn about how DNA and modern science has changed how birds are classified\, and have the opportunity to get very hands on with some interesting specimens. \nWhile the middle & high school students are in the lab\, the younger students will be given additional time in the museum to complete a scavenger hunt\, do some sketching or coloring they will have art supplies available. \nWho: Everyone – only 6th grade and up will be permitted in the lab classroom.   Younger students will have an alternate activity in the museum. \nCost: $10 per student 6th grade & up\, $5 per student preschool and up\,  and $5 per adult.  Babies and toddlers free.

SUMMARY:Santa Barbara Botanic Garden
DESCRIPTION:The Garden’s school programs introduce children to the wonders of nature through interactive learning experiences. They hope to encourage a lifelong interest in plant science and ecology by fostering an appreciation and understanding of the natural world. \n\nDuring this 2 hour tour\, students have the opportunity to experience science first-hand in the Garden’s Plant Lab. Groups will have 30 minutes in an instructor-led lab to explore using our Zeiss microscopes\, models\, and dissecting equipment to view plant structures in a whole new light!  Outside of the lab\, our experienced docents will illuminate some of the amazing adaptations of our California native plants.  Each tour utilizes inquiry-based teaching methods to engage students with the natural world and inspire curiosity with their surroundings. \nThis field trip is for all ages.  Children will be divided into groups by age so that they can get the most out of the lab experience.  I estimate that we will have 9th-12th in their own group (if are you studying Biology\, this field trip is perfect for you!)\, mid- upper elementary and middle school together\, and the youngest kids (pk- 2) will be in their own small group.  If your child is too young to sit still and participate in the lab portion\, you are welcome to explore the garden just outside of the classroom while older students are participating in the lab.  You are also welcome to stay inside the classroom and watch\, but please be respectful and wait outside with your little ones if they become disruptive.  The walking tour is appropriate for all ages\, but keep in mind that the grounds are not stroller friendly (there are steps\, hills and rugged terrain in some areas) and you will need to carry babies and little kids if they get tired. \n\nLinks to educational resources\, including a downloadable wildflower coloring book : https://www.sbbg.org/learn-discover/school-programs/curriculum-resources \nCost: This field trip costs $125 for any group size up to 30 children.   So\, the more children we have participate\, the lower the cost per person.  I have personally paid for this in advance.  This is a new requirement they have due to the frequency of last minute cancellations.  I can only get my money back with 6 weeks’ notice. of cancellation.  I need to see that there is enough interest in this field trip well in advance\, so please do not wait until the last minute to sign up\, or it may get cancelled.  However\, please keep in mind that when you sign up\, you are expected to be there and make this a priority on your calendar.   You won’t want to miss this field trip anyways\, this is a wonderful place to visit and explore\, and they do a great job with the lab!   Considering the educational experience that is provided\, and their regular admission prices\, this is a really good deal. \nSign up on the Google Sheet linked below.  You only need to sign up students who will be participating.  Parents and babies/toddlers do not need to be signed up\, but I would appreciate knowing if you will have little ones tagging along.  If you want to bring an extra adult\, like Dad or a grandparent\, please check with me first.  We need to be mindful that our group size does not get too large.  They do not have limits on chaperones\, and we don’t want to give them a reason to make any new rules.

SUMMARY:Tree Walk\, Biology/Species Identification Field Trip
DESCRIPTION:Come spend a day with us in beautiful Solvang at the Hans Christian Anderson Park for a Treewalk sponsored by NatureTrack: \n“The not-for-profit NatureTrack advocates the educational approach of noted author and educator David Sobel that fosters a child’s love of the earth while also developing a child’s academic and social competence. David Sobel’s most recent book “Place-Based Education: Connecting Classrooms & Communities” offers scientific and anecdotal evidence that placed-based education is successfully meeting\, and in many cases surpassing\, the various standards and mandates that are increasingly a part of educational reform in this country.” \nYou can read more about NatureTrack here: https://naturetrack.org/about/ \nThey are arranging docents for us to focus on biology and tree species identification. \nCost: Free \nWho: Everyone \nTime:  Field Trip Begins at 10:30\, please arrive by 10:15 \nAdditional information/What to bring:  \n\nWe will be splitting up into two groups so that the docents can give plenty of attention to each student.  We have also been instructed to “make large\, legible nametags that adhere or attach well to the students.(Please also make them for adults and denote if Teacher\, Parent\, or Aide)”  I will make the nametags for everyone who is signed up.  I will probably make a necklace with yarn and cardstock\, but if you and your kids want to make your own name tags for fun\, let me know.  I don’t think the sticker ones we usually use is what they are looking for.\n We will be eating lunch on the trail\, as I understand it.  They ask that each student has their own backpack with two water bottles and lunch.   Just make sure you bring enough food and water for yourself and your kids with you on the walk – if you want to carry it all\, or have your kids carry their own is up to you.\nParents attending will be asked to participate in all activities with the exception of answering questions intended for the students!\nStudents are discouraged from bringing cell phones or cameras with them on the trail.  Parents may have a cell phone/camera\, but they would like parents to set a good example in not using them on the trip.  I think it is fine for the parents to take some pictures or use a cell phone if necessary\, but please make sure it is not a distraction.\n Participants should wear long pants\, closed toed sturdy shoes\, a hat and sunscreen.\nIf you have any questions about this field trip\, email me at bonnieadair@verizon.net so I can be sure to ask.\n\nOptional: Mrs. Tromans will lead us in a nature art project after we are done with our docent led walk.  This will be a great opportunity for the kids to process what we have learned\, make something for their school portfolio\, and maybe even make some art to submit for our upcoming fine arts festival in May.  Bring some colored pencils and your nature sketch book if you have them.  Another idea I had is to visit Ostrich Land. https://www.ostrichlandusa.com/ \, and we could even meet up together for breakfast before the field trip if any of you are adventurous/crazy enough to get up and go that early =) \nSign Up:  The more the merrier! We would really like to have some more families join us.  I know it’s a drive\, but Solvang is a wonderful place to visit\, Hans Christian Anderson Park is awesome\, and I am really excited about this nature field trip.  I have not been able to find any comparable field trip offerings in Ventura County.
