What a beautiful winter day for a trip to the forest! Our 4K - 4th grade naturalists were able to spend almost 2 hours snow shoeing, bushwhacking (exploring the forest off trail), learning about ice fishing, and touching mounted North American forest animals. Forts were made, snowmen were camouflaged, trees were climbed, bears were stroked, and smiles were everywhere. After hot chocolate and granola bar snacks at the warming station, the milk jugs to be used as luminaries for the night hike were decorated and bagged. Their adventure in the school forest had a little something for everyone, especially fun! We hope to see you at the school forest for the family night hike on Saturday, February 3rd for 4-8 pm.

Enjoy walking the illuminated Tom Holden trail at Memorial Park and school forest. Dress for being outside and go at your own pace, once or multiple times. There will also be a fire warming station and hot cocoa (as long as it lasts!). Come and go as you please, but make sure all children are with an adult. Hope to see you there!

BES scientists wrapped up the 2023 year by learning about reindeer, caribou in the United States. They learned many interesting facts such as how they conserve heat, that a week old caribou can outrun an Olympic runner, and one of the first sculptures was of 2 reindeer swimming across a lake. A special thank you the Meier family for letting us borrow this reindeer pelt! BES scientists were amazed at how soft it felt!
