We ask for a donation for attendance at field and certain other events and suggest R100 for adults and R20 for children 11 years and younger, with the option of donating R300 PER FAMILY for an annual subscription in July each year.
Some venues will also require an entrance fee which must be paid by each individual.
For field trips we will supply vials, magnifiers, plastic pill bottles and some other basic collecting equipment, but please bring your own if you have as well as any reference books, a picnic lunch, adequate water, a hat and good walking shoes.

Spider ID Course
July 25 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm
It’s that time of year again where we do an ID course, helping you figure out how to distinguish between the common spider families in and around your homes!
We will be examining different spider specimens through microscopes and learning which characteristics separate them from other spiders, as well as the different groupings of different families of spiders.
A bonus is that we all get to take a peak at the National Collection of Arachnida! This is where all collected specimens are kept that have been described and even lots that are yet to be described!
We ask for a donation of R100 per person and R50 for kids under 12.
Keep your eyes on your e-mail and our Facebook page as other events may be organised, sometimes at short notice. We will attempt to give you fair warning. And remember that Norman Larsen is at the Cape Union Mart Adventure Centre, Canal walk in Cape Town every Saturday 11h00–12h00 to demonstrate and talk about SPIDERS!
