Fee Assistance
Explorit offers a limited number of free or reduced fee programs.
Groups demonstrating significant financial need may apply for fee assistance from Explorit's Sassenrath Fund. Call 530-756-0191 for more information on fee assistance opportunities or use the online form.
​
Teachers, principals, after-school program providers and even parent representatives are welcome to apply.
Both full and partial scholarships are available for schools or groups demonstrating financial need. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, so don't delay in filling out our online form.
​
Approvals for fee assistance are limited by availability and must be made separately from the program reservation application process. Programs fill up quickly so we encourage you to send in your fee assistance application soon and make your program reservation once you receive notification.
Cancellation Policy

A $72 fee will be charged for Discovery Lesson, Inquiry Lab, or Nature Safari cancellations (or $144 for a combined Discovery Lesson/Nature Safari or Discovery Lesson/Inquiry Lab program) made within 3 weeks of the scheduled program.
