Each spring the Friends of Netarts Bay WEBS brings hundreds of second graders out to explore tidepools and other areas near Netarts Bay.  In 2020 this exploration became virtual, via this excellent 30-minute video.  You don’t have to be a second grader to enjoy and learn from this exploration of life in the various tide zones near Oceanside. 


Created in collaboration with the Tillamook County STEM Partnership as a virtual field trip experience during the covid pandemic.
