TRECA Students Participate in Creek Study at Blendon Woods Metro Park

On October 12, TRECA students visited Blendon Woods Metro Park in Columbus, OH.

Students participated in a creek study, wading into the stream with nets to catch, examine, and release various aquatic animals. Their finds included salamanders, a leech, several crayfish, and frogs. The combination of species helped students determine that the water quality in the creek could be improved. After the creek study, families hiked through the woods to the nature center and viewed several exhibits with live animals in them.
