The first 15 students who contact FSgt. Steve Simpson at simpsons@dnr.sc.gov will be able to attend.
DNR will confirm your attendance by email with further instructions, so respond quickly for a slot. Lunch will be provided at this free event and parents/guardians are welcome to stay while their students participate. Please keep in mind this is a school holiday for some and not for others.
