Students from Miss Dausel's Environmental Science class got the opportunity to visit Moorehead Park on Wednesday, October 22. The students were able to pick up litter out of the pond and off the shores using canoes & kayaks, pet & hold the snakes & turtles in the conservation center, and learn more about invasive species by immersing themselves in the park and cutting out the invasive bush honeysuckle plants. Thank you to Ida County Naturalist Danielle Bennett for hosting us!
