The Susquehanna County Conservation District (SCCD) visited the fourth grade at Elk Lake School District on October 15. SCCD staff Steve Fisher, Jen Morelli, and Roger Sherwood each had an environmental demonstration as the students went to three stations for fifteen minute sessions. The Elk Lake School District should be proud of their fourth grade students as they were very attentive for the program. Jen Morelli, Erosion Control Technician, created a model to demonstrate how vegetation protects the soil from eroding. Steve Fisher, Watershed Specialist, had a ground water flow model demonstrating water and contamination flowing into the ground and into our wells and streams. Elk Lake School fourth grade students enjoy making "dirt" pudding with gummy "worms" on Conservation day held October 15. Roger Sherwood, Public Outreach and Education, helped the fourth graders make "dirt" pudding, with instant pudding, Oreo cookies and gummy worms while explaining soil facts and why worms are excellent for soil health. The Conservation District would like to thank fourth grade teachers, Mrs. Caines, Mrs. Vermeulen, Mrs. Lawrence, Mrs. Zurn and Mr. Walker for the invitation to visit Elk Lake and would like to encourage other school districts in Susquehanna County to contact SCCD if they would like an environmental demonstration in the future.
