Just because school is out doesn’t mean the fun and education has to stop! On Monday & Tuesday Mountain View Elementary Summer School and Rockingham 4-H Education visited Riven Rock State Park to learn about water quality and the macroinvertebrate that lives in it. The water was a little cold at first but by the end the adults had trouble getting the kids to get out of the water because they were having so much fun.
Think this looks fun? Well it IS! Contact Rockingham 4-H Education to set up a visit to your local stream or river. We have all the supplies!
