We were fortunate to have been able to spend yesterday at Hubbard Park for ECO. Before leaving the school, we spent a couple of minutes viewing a video clip about mills and talked about the purpose of mills. We then walked to the site of the old mill behind Birch Grove Bakery and the Lane Shops.

Once we arrived at Hubbard Park we were able to construct our own water wheels, determine a logical spot for it to be placed and watch the water flow do its' work. This group was very successful.
Finally, as you can see, some of us were dressed for the 70 degree whether and others had a hard time letting go of winter. (lol)
