Members of the AHS boys track and field team came out to the Outdoor Learning Center to spread mulch on some of the trails. The OLC trails hold a lot of water when it rains, so this project was very helpful. A huge thanks goes out to the team for spending their Saturday morning helping take care of the OLC!

🔊 Sound Up 🔊 to hear a very chatty Northern Mockingbird singing away! I can count at least 3 different bird calls being imitated. How many can you hear?

We have at least one Common Watersnake living in the OLC. These guys are non-venomous, and they're really important predators!
