My last day as TRT was spent at Day Camp at Happy Days Lodge. Ranger Phil and I helped the summer and teaching interns to wrap up a fun environmental education week for over 60 campers ranging from 7 to 12. This was quite a contrast to the city kids who were afraid to go into the woods in June. We had many experienced campers. Some were decked out in vests, walking sticks, binoculars, head lamps, compasses, hiking boots, backpacks and water bottles, of course! We hiked to the Overlook via the Ledges Trail while exploring secret caves and crevices. It was an awesome ending for a fantastic summer experience!
