Join us to explore the impact of paper at Samuel P. Taylor State Park! In this program we will learn all about paper mills, the marks that paper has left on cultural and social dynamics, and it's relationship to the environment. This common item has a fascinating historical file. We will explore how paper has shaped society throughout history and dig into how we are tied to paper in some unexpected ways. Let’s dive in to learn more about how modern paper came to be and how outdoor recreators became superheroes! This program includes a quick demonstration of DIY paper recycling, so bring your pencils! This program is designed for grades 3-5 audiences.
