Woodland Discovery Mission:
“Our mission is to provide play-based, outdoor activities to build on children's sense of wonder, exploration, creativity, and self-worth.

Fishing at the lake is always a popular event! Volunteers are always needed to help kids with the poles and bait.
Play areas as these include zip lines, swings and more. Volunteers are needed to monitor the areas.
Educational booths help teach children a variety of topics such as this one with animal skins. The honey bee hive was a great hit with the kids too. Do you have an educational idea to to share with children? Let us know!
