This is a reminder about the DDP events scheduled for this thursday, May 24th.
Dr. Scott Herron and his students will be joining DDP research subjects on May 24th for a day of foraging, food, and fun. We will be foraging at the Dukes Woods/Laughing White Fish Falls areas in Skandia. We will meet at the school around 8:30am and head out around 9am. We will plan on eating lunch in the woods (bring your own lunch please).
Those DDP research subjects who are also PEIF pass holders that are planning on going to the PEIF DDP class that day should plan to leave the foraging site no later than 2pm so they can make it to NMU in time to join the class.
We will be done foraging by 4pm, and will head back to the school so folks can clean up, do a tic check, and start making dinner. We will have a DDP potluck out at the school from 6-8pm. Scott and his crew are providing maple flavored smoked whitefish from Thills. Tina and I will bring some sweet water and turkey/wild rice soup. We will plan to finish the day by sitting around the camp fire and maybe playing some music.
The PEIF DDP class will be from 3:00pm-4:30pm. The topic will be Kettle Bells and Climbing. The class will meet in the PEIF Fitness studio (next to the racquetball courts). Remember to wear exercise appropriate attire and bring your signed Par-Q. Only 1 DDP research subject showed up for the first class, so hopefully we have a better showing for this one.
