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!

First Activity
On the first day at the camp (Sunday) we learned to use a GPS and locate different points or objects. These are really useful and easy to use. The campers were divided into 4 groups and each group should locate a series of coordinates. When we were close enough to the point we had to look for a box which contained another coordinate. There was a total of 5 coordinates and then we had to meet in another point. It was very interesting and really fun!
