Busy Week

On Wednesday we will go to Chilo Lock #34. While there we will hike on the trail looking at native plants and looking for native animals. We will also learn the history of the Ohio River and its importance to the development of the Ohio River Valley.
We will continue to study plants this week using both print and internet resources to identify local trees.
