Our trip to JA Skinner State Park

We had a beautiful day.  The Summit House porch was open for the first time in 4 years.  We enjoyed the view, played a game, completed an activity with Ms. Traub and took some time to write our thoughts about the day.  







 Ms. Gini Traub,  Regional Environmental Education Coordinator,  taught us about the formation of the park and had a great activity for us to do.  Thank you Ms. Traub!
