Family Pi Discovery Day at the STEAMTrunk Nature & STEAM Center at Camp Arroyo Grande
When: 3/14/26
Time: 10am - 1pm
Cost: $10
Join us for a fun and engaging hands-on event where kids and families explore the magic of Pi—the number that goes on forever. Through interactive stations, participants will discover circles in nature, build with curved shapes, create Pi-inspired art, and take part in fun challenges designed for ages 6 and up.
Set in the beautiful natural setting of Camp Arroyo Grande, this special event blends math, science, art, and outdoor exploration in a way that makes learning exciting and meaningful for the whole family.
No advanced math skills are needed—just bring your curiosity and sense of adventure. Only $10 per mathematician!
Come celebrate Pi Day with STEAMTrunk and discover how math connects to the natural world all around us.
