Freshwater Academy is a week-long camp that gives high school students the opportunity for hands-on experience and fieldwork in Northwestern Pennsylvania's waterways. Students spend their days studying biology and freshwater ecology at a level they can't achieve in the classroom. They will get wet, they will get dirty, and they will love it!

Tree Man
This afternoon, we met a man who speaks "tree".....jealous? PLUS, he even gave us our own "Learn to speak Tree" guides a.k.a "Common Trees of Pennsylvania". Well, technically he didn't "speak" to them in front of us....but we knew he did. He brought us through these super narrow paths, called out the names of nearly EVERYthing we passed, and we, in an overwhelmed fashion, tried to write down the names and keep up with Mr. Brilliant Tree Man. I can speak for the whole group in saying that the "Cucumbertree Magnolia" was pretty much the coolest tree alive....Even the bears know that...and I'm RURLY surprised no one has created Cucumbertree Seed Perfume...it smells good...om nom nom
