We are again organizing a trip to Wolfe's Neck Farm for the in-service day (teachers in school, kids not) on October 9th. The event starts at 10am, and involves a barnyard tour and pumpkin hayride. The hayride will include our pumpkin science lesson, and the kids will be able to bring home a pumpkin. Everyone will get a locally grown apple to snack on for the hayride back to the farm! Families are encouraged to bring picnics and stay for lunch and even take advantage of the hiking trails or nearby Wolfe's Neck State Park .
(I am wondering if older kids might be more interested in letterboxing or geocaching at Wolfe's Neck Farm instead -- if your family would prefer that, we could still all convene for a picnic... please let me know).
The cost is $5.00 per person and we're encouraging carpooling, helping friends with childcare, etc.
We do not need a firm commitment now, but the Wolfe's Neck folks would really appreciate an estimate of how many people are coming so they can be prepared for us... If you know that you ARE coming, please e-mail kim @ kcs@maine.rr.com
Hope to see many of you there -- in the past it has been a great chance for parents to get to know one another while kids have space to romp.
