Snowshoeing at Hidden Valley
Tuesday, February 23, 2016
The First Graders are taking a field trip to Hidden Valley for an outdoor adventure filled with snowshoeing, animal tracking and fun! We will leave school at 10:00 by bus and return around 1:15. We have arranged to have the use of snowshoes for everyone (adults too) and an International Wolf Center naturalist will be leading a program about animal tracking and camouflage. The snowshoes have bindings on them that attach to your boots. In between the snowshoeing and animal tracking activities we will have a picnic style lunch in the chalet.
Students and Volunteers need to bring in their backpacks:
- lunch and beverage
- extra mittens - socks
- snowshoes, if you have them
We will need adult volunteers to make this a fun and successful day. If you are able to help us out, please contact us as soon as possible. Thank you to our PTO, the International Wolf Center, Camp Widjiwagan and for their generous donations and use of equipment.
First Grade Teachers,
Tiffany Davis, Susan Ferguson and Kelly Skustad
