Launch of the Get to Know Program

On September 26 partners from throughout California gathered to celebrate the U.S. launch of the Robert Bateman’s Get to Know program.

Two launch events, at the Los Angeles County Zoo and at the San Diego Museum of Natural History, signaled the beginning of an art, photography and writing contest for children ages 1- 18.

In the United States, the Forest Service has joined forces with the Get to Know Society, the National Wildlife Federation, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Children and Nature Network to bring this exciting educational program to children in California, and across the United States.
