Hobbies and Recreation Field Trip to Hudson Highlands Nature Museum

Mrs. Campbell and Mr. Powers’ Hobbies and Recreation class enjoyed an educational field trip to the Hudson Highlands Nature Museum in Cornwall, NY. During the visit, students learned about the differences between reptiles and amphibians and had the opportunity to observe a variety of animals up close.

Some of the highlights included a blue-tongued skink, a black rat snake, turtles, a red-tailed hawk, an owl, and an especially energetic squirrel named Ophelia!

The students also enjoyed a nature walk near the museum, where they had the opportunity to explore the outdoors and appreciate the natural environment. Overall, the trip was an engaging and enjoyable experience that combined hands-on learning, animal observation, and outdoor recreation. 

Special thanks to everyone who helped chaperone the trip, including Mr. Delgardo, Mrs. Rowlands, Mrs. Lersch, Mr. Peterson, Mrs. Neproanny, Mrs. Ross, and Mr. Saltz.
