Hartwick Pines

The Lewis-Cass ISD took Cassopolis Advanced Biology Class and Edwardsburg to Hartwick Pines State Park. There, the students, along with their chaperone's Miss Hawkins and Mr. Chapman, spent two days and a night learning about the old growth forest and visiting it. A very cool experience for our students.
