Pond Study (1 – 1.5 hours) Life in a healthy small pond is often very abundant, however, not so much to the naked eye. These small macro- and micro-invertebrates are good environmental health indicators. Students will collect, identify, and study these many fascinating and wonderful creatures in our local pond. (Our camp van can only accommodate 10 passengers at a time. We will be happy to make multiple trips to the pond, which is only 5 minutes away from main camp. However, if you are able to provide an additional form of transportation for your group, that will be a benefit to the program).
