Saturday Field Trips
S-1 Crawfordsville Strawberry Festival and Tree Tour. Visit
a typical mid-west city festival. June is strawberry month so sample
the strawberry short cake and find a souvenir from the local handicrafts. Various
local groups perform songs, dancing, and music during the day. We will
also stop at the only revolving jail in the country and if time permits, we
will visit a local native hardwood woods. The creek that goes through
the woods is also a good place to find fossil crinoids, brachiopods, etc. You
can also see damage done by beaver activity.
