Event Type

Join Kristin Joivell and her Science Club students from Juniata Valley Elementary School as they guide you through a hands-on exploration of the life in and around the river near their school. We will focus on finding aquatic macroinvertebrates in order to meet our end goal for the day’s event. Our goal is to determine the quality of the environment by indicating the types of organisms living in the river, also called a biotic index. You will also be able to examine the school’s raised garden bed project and outdoor education center. Additionally, light refreshments will be served. Meet in front of the Juniata Valley Elementary School at noon. Come prepared to get into the water, meet unfamiliar creatures, and discover the outdoor world! If you would like more details about the event or have any questions make sure to call Kristin at (814) 386-6267.
