This
piece of property consists of twelve acres of mostly woodland,
a one acre pond and a house. The house has been converted
into classrooms for teaching. The pond is suitable for fishing
and serves as the host for pond studies as well as amphibian
monitoring. There are easy walking trails throughout the site.
Visitors can expect a leisurely walk along the trails in mostly
shade, areas with benches for quietly enjoying the fishing
and tranquility.
This
property is opened only for scheduled programs and is not
opened for daily public access. Programs
are scheduled through the Outdoor Unit. For information
regarding this park or to set up a program, contact Rusty
