Yesterday was a beautiful day to host Seneca Academy for an outdoor field trip. We took a winding walk through the beautiful grounds on our way to the creek, where the children were able to explore and catch some creek critters. they caught minnows, crayfish, and some frogs (all were returned to the water at the conclusion of the trip). We hope they had a wonderful time.

If this looks like an activity your class or camp would be interested in, please reach out to us.

We had a great day at Monacacy Elementary today, celebrating Earth Day. We weeded, mulched, edged and planted. The grounds of the school look amazing. Earth Day is Saturday April 22, we hope you do something personal to celebrate.

We need a parent from each school who can commit to attending the club every week. Please email [email protected] with any questions.

Cirrocumulus clouds (aka mackerel clouds) overhead this evening. They are relatively rare and it's a great show if you are in MoCo. Look up 👀

Box turtle in the surf? Likely a predator dropped her there. Rescued turtle and released in forested area where she belongs.
