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🪳 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. \nPlease note that the Disease Vector Education Center will be closed on Friday\, June 19\, 2026- Saturday\, June 20\, 2026\, in observance of Juneteenth. Regular operations will resume on Sunday\, June 21\, 2026. \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
