The Albion Field Station is located in Albion, California, on the south bank of the Albion River, in a former lumber camp.[1] It was established in 1947, and provides college courses in biology as well as shorter courses for elementary and high school students and seniors.[2] It also provides boating facilities, which were significantly renovated beginning in 2007.[2][3]
