Thanks for a great day!



Jim Tingey of Trout Unlimited leading discussion of what we hope to learn through this project

We had a great first day with the Environmental Science classes of Highland Park High School! We discussed what we already know about the ravines and how this ecosystem was formed. The students then did a site evaluation of the area, taking note of sights, sounds and spatial qualities (cereal bowl vs. cathedral). We re-grouped at the end to discuss what we WANT to know, which we are most excited to start discussing and researching!


Thanks so much to the students and everyone else who endured the cold to come out and participate in our first group meeting at Ravine Drive. We are so impressed with your enthusiasm and are really looking forward to our next session. In the meantime, please post your photos/thoughts/questions/reactions and we will continue to do the same!
