Friday of each BASEC Vacation Program week is a field trip day. We are so lucky to live in such close proximity to these amazing resources! Our field trips are always a highlight of the week!

This year, we are again utilizing Eastern Bus Company for each of our field trips. Typically, we conduct check-in on Friday at our regular time and leave on the buses between 9:00 – 9:30 AM. We return at approximately 4:30 PM for February and April weeks and at approximately 5:00 PM for summer weeks.
