SUMMARY:May Upcoming Events
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for a month of investigations\, insect intel\, and scientific discovery at the Disease Vector Education Center. Beginning May 14 at 11:30 AM\, our brand-new Crazy Science series\, “Classified Critters\,” will take guests through the fascinating world of classification\, taxonomy\, and arthropod diversity through age-based mission levels. From Arthropods 101 to advanced entomology operations\, each session builds on the science of how we organize and identify living things\, with a special focus on insects\, mosquitoes\, and other disease vectors. \n  \nAlso happening this month:  \n• Classified Critters Missions available Wednesdays–Fridays following our 11:30 AM showings\, check the showtime dates for the lessons on this flyer. \n• Weekend Whodunits available Saturdays and Sundays\, where agents can solve a mysterious case file centered around that month’s featured disease vector \n• Feature Creature spotlight showings at 11:30 AM check the flyer for the dates. \n• Vector Cravings: Tick Edition featuring Lyme disease awareness \n  \nJoin us as we investigate the science behind the natural world and uncover how classification helps scientists better understand mosquitoes\, vectors\, and the incredible diversity of arthropods around us.

SUMMARY:June 2026 Upcoming Events
DESCRIPTION:🎬 June Is Packed with New Missions\, Mysteries\, and Critters at DVEC! 🕵️‍♂️🔍\nGet ready for an exciting month of learning\, investigation\, and hands-on discovery at the Disease Vector Education Center! \nThis June\, we’re continuing our newly expanded Crazy Science program with Classified Critters\, taking guests on a journey through the fascinating world of arthropod classification. From beginner bug detectives to advanced entomology operatives\, there’s a level for every age group. \nLooking for an extra challenge? Try our Monthly Missions! Continue your classification training with Classified Critters activities after each Crazy Science program\, or put your detective skills to the test with our all-new Weekend Whodunits\, where a new mystery awaits investigation each month. \nOur Feature Creature programs return with some incredible arthropods: \n🕷 Ursula the Pink-Toe Tarantula \n🦂 Kuzco the Emperor Scorpion \n🪳 The Hissers\, our Madagascar Hissing Roaches \nJoin us for Vector Cravings\, where we’ll take a closer look at Culex quinquefasciatus and its connection to West Nile virus. During our live mosquito attraction demonstration\, we’ll discover what makes someone a bigger mosquito magnet and explore the factors that can make mosquitoes prefer one person over another\, while busting common myths along the way. We’ll also share practical tips to help reduce mosquito bites and protect yourself throughout mosquito season. \nWhether you’re solving mysteries\, meeting live arthropods\, learning scientific classification\, or exploring mosquito-borne diseases\, June is full of opportunities to discover something new. \nWe look forward to seeing you at DVEC as we continue learning and protecting our community together! \n#DVEC #AMCD #ClassifiedCritters #WeekendWhodunit #FeatureCreature #VectorCravings #Entomology #STEMEducation #ScienceEducation #MosquitoControl #WestNileVirus #CulexMosquito #PublicHealth #FamilyActivities #LearnAndExplore #ProtectOurCommunity #StJohnsCounty #DiseaseVectorEducationCenter #MedicalEntomology #CrazyScience

SUMMARY:June 2026 Programming Announcement
DESCRIPTION:Our regularly scheduled Crazy Science\, Feature Creature\, and Vector Cravings programs will be paused from June 3–7\, 2026 as our team prepares exciting new experiences for the summer season. \n\n\nWhile these programs are on break\, guests can still enjoy Fish Frenzy\, our scavenger hunts\, and monthly self-guided missions throughout the week. \n\n\nWhen programs return\, visitors can look forward to: \n• New and expanded Crazy Science lessons: We’re continuing Classification Critters topic series into June while we finalize two additional educational themes for later this summer. \n• Interactive Feature Creature: Experience a lesson on our live arthropods\, meet them in person\, and get a chance to test what you learned with a trivia challenge. \n• Weekend Whodunit: Our brand-new monthly mystery activity where guests become investigators and solve a different public health entomology-themed case each month. \n• Hurricane Season Tips and Information: This month marks the start of hurricane season\, stay tuned to our posts on how storms can impact mosquito populations and what families can do before and after severe weather to reduce mosquito breeding around their homes. \n• Vector of the Month: This month follows Culex Mosquitoes\, with a special focus on West Nile virus\, mosquito surveillance\, prevention\, and how our community can help reduce mosquito-borne disease risks. \n\n\nWe appreciate your patience as we continue improving programs and creating new ways for guests of all ages to learn about vectors\, public health\, and the important work of mosquito control. \n\n\nStay tuned for upcoming announcements and program schedules. We can’t wait to share what’s next and continue learning and protecting our community together!
