BioBlitz 2024

BioBlitz 2025: May 2 & 3

Join us for a St. Louis community celebration and scientific survey of the plants and animals that live on the Principia School campus. All are invited to explore and discover alongside scientists from the Saint Louis Zoo, Missouri naturalists, and Missouri Department of Conservation. In addition to this citizen science nature discovery, join us for s’mores and stargazing Friday night and donuts, nature crafts, and STEM activities Saturday morning. It’s an event to remember!

No experience necessary, and adventurers of all ages are welcome. Be sure to wear comfortable clothes and shoes that you can explore and get dirty in. 

All events begin at the Principia School Mesa Soccer Field.
