The kids and I went to one last fall, and it was very well done......it was about the native americans and their way of life in Maine before discovery.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post......I think we will try a few of these as well....they look good.
Val,
ReplyDeleteWe'll be making a couple of these too. Definitely orienteering.
I think I'll try to hit as many of these as possible--orienteering a must!
ReplyDeleteSee y'all Friday!
I am also going to sign up for these. Especially the orienteering although I wouldn't mind if my kids could get lost, just for a little while anyway.
ReplyDeleteOK, recheck dates posted to the 2nd Monday/month.
