Hartshorn Arboretum

I want to start out by saying that I was impressed that the group was still willing to come out in the rainy, blowing weather we had Friday.

The group as a whole preformed wonderfully during the paddle especially considering the windy conditions. It was really great to see parents and kids working together toward a common goal (not flipping, going in a certain direction, resisting the urge to smack the other in the head with the paddle).

My favorite part of your visit to Sedge was of course when Bonnie found the Nudibranch. It is just so much fun to say! And if you missed the live Nudibranch, you can see a picture if you go to the pictures link on the right. It looks like a spikey, colorful slug. I have never seen hermit crabs change shells, nor have I seen so many people get so excited over it! You were also the first group to catch any fish off the dock this season!

As Jim says I am the “Electricity Police” and we want to know if your conservation habits have changed since you visited the island, or if you plan on doing anything differently because of something we did on the Island.

Bonnie, you were a wonderful group leader. Thank you for all your help with the group, and I hope to experience one of your adventures in the future.
