NATURE HIKE
Devil's Hopyard History Hike to One Room Schoolhouse
Saturday, Nov. 27, 10:00 AM. Want to burn off some excess Thanksgiving calories? Take a break from holiday shopping? Join the Friends of Devil's Hopyard for a hike back in time. Learn about the history of this once thriving community while you follow an abandoned road to the one-room schoolhouse on Millington Green. John Bauer will share his research into the history of this one room school, and open the schoolhouse for a peak into the past of this 150 year old structure. Return via red trail, past vernal pools recently surveyed as part of the Eightmile River Wild and Scenic Study.
Families are welcome, but children should be able to walk 2-3 miles. Meet at the covered bridge in the main picnic area parking lot off Hopyard Rd. Rain date Sunday, 11/28. Directions | For more info, e-mail me at Will Brady
