Have fun during Fall Break with Discovery on the Mountain at Burritt. Choose from three different social distancing hikes/activities for students ages 5-12. These hikes/activities are offered on October 5, 7, & 9 from 9:30am-11:30am and will be outside on our trails or in our historic park. All students need to wear a mask or bandana, bring their own water bottle, and apply sunscreen and/or bug spray before they arrive. The activities will be guided by our amazing CPR-certified Burritt educators and will include a craft. Classes are limited to 15 students in similar age groups. Parents will receive instructions for drop off and pick up of students after registration. This activity is outside, and it may be affected by inclement weather. We will contact you if a class is cancelled or rescheduled due to weather.
