Gabriel's Bend Overlook Hike
Our second event in our 'Take a Walk on the Wild Side' hiking series. Join NC Guide & Haw River native Ben Clarke and his trusty dog Rocco once again for a spectacular 1.5 mile round-trip hike down the west bank of the Haw from Highway 64. We'll pass some of the most famous rapids on the river and lots of native mountain laurel, which should be at the peak of their flowering season! Our hike will take us to Gabriel's Bend, a Class III rapid where the Haw has cut a mighty cliff out of the riverbank. The trail climbs this cliff to a unique overlook surveying more than a mile of the river! Please be aware that this hike involves plenty of rock scrabbling, uneven ground on informal trails, and the risk of poison ivy, ticks, and mosquitos. Sturdy shoes, bug spray, and water recommended! Friendly dogs on leash are welcome but may struggle with the terrain.

Supporting Environmental Literacy Across the Curriculum With the MWEE Framework
The environment provides endless opportunities for authentic learning experiences that support your entire curriculum. When students learn through systemic and well-designed environmental education, they build background content knowledge to support literacy, experience authentic, hands-on learning that advances STEM and promotes career readiness. Recognizing the complexities of implementing student-driven, authentic, and locally relevant environmental education that meets academic goals, we will explore the Meaningful Watershed Education Experience (MWEE). This well-established framework provides the structure and resources to support integrating environmental education in schools that aligns to PA STEELS standards, including the Environmental Literacy and Sustainability domain.

Time travel - is it possible? At the Preserve it is! Using clues we can still find today, campers will explore what life might have been like here at different points in history. What was it like to be a dinosaur? Where did mastodons go? How have indigenous people cared for this land? Each camper will come home with their own historical artifact! Also offered July 14-16.

Steps into Nature Presents: Let's Write an Article Together!
As a group, we'll write and illustrate a little article for the Lansdowne Borough e-newsletter, using the information we gathered last time about possums and skunks. Grown-ups reading the newsletter need to be educated about these animals! We'll think through what are the most important things to say in our article, and in what order. Then we authors will enjoy a snack of alphabet cookies.
