Summer Science Workshop for Children
Earthworms—Hands On
Saturday, July 16, 2011 2:00 PM
This event was the first of our three Saturday Science Workshops in partnership with APEC (Alley Pond Environmental Center) and funds provided by the Jospehine Foundation.

The weather was perfect and we were set up by the Maple Grove Lake at Maple Grove Cemetery. Venus from APEC was the staff member who conducted the workshop. It was a very educational program with hands-on activities. The applause and appreciative comments by the parents was very indicative of how it went. Refreshments were provided. Capri juices and cookies were passed to all. Each child was given a certicate of participation.
