Additional Information
Each spring the MacKenzie Center in Poynette, WI welcomes students to our sugarbush to learn the process and history of making maple syrup in Wisconsin through our Maple Education Program. Visit their Website Here.
This program will offer students the opportunity to: 1) visit our “sugarbush,” 2) learn the history and process of making maple syrup, 3) enhance their knowledge of tree identification and the process of photosynthesis. This educational experience will feature “hands-on” learning, including tapping a tree, making a spile to take home, and tasting some pure MacKenzie maple syrup! The program lasts approximately two hours and is 100% outdoors. It is very important for students to dress for the weather: e.g. suitable hats, gloves, boots, and a warm jacket.
DATE: We were assigned two time slots, 8:45AM and 11:45AM on Wednesday, March 30th with a total of 60 kids per slot. Please sign-up for your desired time slot. If it is full, you will be put on a waiting list. THIS SIGN UP IS FOR THE 11:45 TIME SLOT!!
COST: $5.00 per student attending (Parents and Chaperones are free). Because we need to make one payment to MacKenzie Center, this fee will need to be charged when you reserve your spot. No refunds will be granted, but if you are not able to attend, you can gift your spot to someone else. Payments will be processed on-line through the FISH website (a 3% Technology Fee will be added). If you are not comfortable with this, you can make other arrangements with Becky Hutchinson at [email protected] (for FISH) or Regina Kolbow, [email protected] (for CC).
You have until February 28th to sign-up for this field trip! After that, we will be opening this up to the Public to fill any open slots.
PLEASE ONLY SIGN-UP YOUR STUDENT! Parents and Chaperones are free and do not need to be registered.
PLEASE PRINT THIS FORM OUT AND BRING IT WITH YOU TO THE FIELD TRIP: Required Consent Form
