They can plant their own seed to take home, make their own fossil, classify species, and even pretend to be birds with unique characteristics and adaptations. Older groups can examine trees, ecosystem factors and carrying capacity, fossils, and water quality. The park also offers exciting outdoor physical education programs, including a geography “wilderness survival” program, and archery.

FUN FACTS
Two hundred thousand Civil War soldiers were boys no older than 16, and an estimated 300 women were brave enough to disguise themselves as men and fight in the war. The average soldier weighed only 145 pounds due to poor diet, long marches, disease, and tough living, and earned between $13-$16 per month. Reading about these facts is interesting, but actually living them makes the information come alive. Living History Centers can allow students to experience how people lived during important historical eras, including enlisting as a soldier during the Civil War.
