Girl Scouts Love State Parks

Silver Springs State Park, Wekiwa Springs State Park, and Oklawaha River Aquatic Preserve hosted “Girl Scouts Love State Parks”. On the morning of September 13, 100 Girl Scouts of all ages arrived at Silver Springs State Park excited and curious. They rotated through several stations where they learned about the aquatic food web with live animals to touch, prescribed burning, and what lives in the different habitats within the state parks. They also went hiking, on a glass bottom boat tour, and ended with a service project in the garden. Lots of fun was had by the Girls Scouts, the leaders, the staff, and volunteers.
