4th graders took a field trip to Dead Creek Wildlife Management area where they participated in a Songbird Banding Demonstration with Vermont Fish and Wildlife and Otter Creek Audubon. The students observed and learned why scientists band birds, how to identify birds, what adaptations many birds have, and why they migrate!

Los Dirt Amigos Mountain Bike Club met this week to explore the D&H Rail Trail in Castleton. Bikers enjoyed a gorgeous fall day full of colors and a warm sun. The group encountered many animals along the ride, including squirrels, birds, a garden snake and two friendly horses. Everyone had a wonderful time riding their bikes. We look forward to next week's ride.

Did you know about 211? Vermont 211 is the number to dial to find out about hundreds of important community resources, like emergency food and shelter, disability services, counseling, senior services, health care, child care, drug and alcohol programs, legal assistance, transportation agencies, educational and volunteer opportunities, and much more.
2-1-1 is not an emergency number like 9-1-1, nor is it directory assistance like 4-1-1.
211 is your first step toward solving everyday problems or when you are facing difficult times. It’s a free service. It’s confidential. It’s 24/7. You can call or even text! The link to their website is below.
