Homeschoolers at Minnewaska: Forest Mysteries

Thursday, May 16, 2024 01:00 PM - 03:00 PM

Minnewaska is no stranger to unique natural features. With its sparkling white cliffs, centuries-old, dwarf, pitch pines and huge boulders that appear to have fallen from the sky, you might wonder how the landscape came to be. Bring your homeschooled children for a chance to explore these mysteries and more. Park educators will teach concepts in the areas of geology, ecology, and natural history as we take a hike to explore these curiosities. This program is recommended for children between the ages of seven to twelve years old, accompanied by a parent or guardian over the age of 18. Well-behaved younger siblings are always welcome, but please note that this program will involve hiking. Meet at the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center. Pre-registration is required by calling the Lake Minnewaska Visitor Center at 845-255-0752.
