Join the Otter Romp!

In the effort to get you and your children back out to Claytor Nature Center under the continuing conditions of the pandemic, we are launching a mini educational membership program!
River otters are known for their curiosity and playful ways on and off land. At Claytor Nature Center, we hope to foster a similar kind of outdoor attitude among our children and adult guests, so we have named our educational membership program after these exuberant creatures. An otter romp is the most playful collective name for a group of otters, and we hope you will join ours, as we seek to expand our accessibility to you!
