The Tyson Field Science staff, under the direction of Science Outreach within the Biology Department of Washington University in St. Louis, are sad to announce the closing of the Tyson Field Science program as of June 1, 2006.  Unfortunately, although Jon Chase, acting director of Tyson Research Center and the faculty and staff here and on campus  have been incredibly supportive through the years, our grant and fee support will no longer allow us to maintain the high quality of programming that teachers and scout leaders have come to expect at the Tyson Research Center.

Thank you to all teachers, scout leaders and parents that have supported us
in the previous 20 years.  It is through your efforts that the next generation will become responsible stewards of the environment. Again, thank you for your encouragement and promotion of outdoor science education.
