Guided Sound Exploration Hike with Pinnguaq Association - This event has already occurred

Event Details:

Embark on a unique journey of auditory discovery with Caitie Blumsom of Pinnguaq Association as your guide! This guided hike promises an immersive experience that combines technology, nature, and creativity. Caitie will lead participants through the trails while utilizing the Merlin app for sound identification, providing an interactive and educational exploration of the natural soundscape.

Equipped with iPads provided by Pinnguaq, participants will use the Merlin app to identify various bird songs encountered along the way. This hands-on approach allows for a deeper understanding of the biodiversity present in the area and highlights the interconnectedness of species within the ecosystem.

Afterward, participants will engage in a pencil-to-paper sound mapping activity, capturing the unique sounds heard during the hike. Notebooks and pencils will be provided for this creative endeavor, allowing participants to document their auditory experiences and express their observations in a tangible way.

Cost is $12.00 plus HST for adults and $6.00 plus HST for kids 12 and under.

We will be meeting at the main parking lot (dog park parking lot).
