Did you know people used to LIVE at Buck Island? Did you know there are archeological sites on BuckIsland that date back to Pre Hispanic Native People's? Would you like to see where those sites are, learn how to make some tools that they might have used, and explore some of the lesser known areas of Buck?
YES??
Details:
Monday August 27, 2012 at 8:00 at Green Cay we will go from there to Buck Island for at least 3 - 4 hours. You need to bring food, water, hiking shoes, safety glasses, and gardening gloves.
What I need from you:
Amount of people in your group - divided by Kids(their ages), and adults.
What we REALLY need:
BOATS. If we can't get enough boats to take us out there from our group, we will not be able to do this. There is a possibility of renting a boat to go out(from MileMark), but then we may pay a fee per head. I will get a cost back to the group, but I think it wouldn't be much.
Also I will send out some reading if you want to go to this that might help you ask great questions to the NPS people.
This site is a way for anyone interested in homeschooling in the Virgin Islands(specifically St. Croix), or thinking about homeschooling to see what we are doing as a homeschool community. Field trips, classes, community events, etc will be posted so that anyone who is a homeschooler and wants to participate will be able to find information easily. If you live on STT or STJ, I would love to hear about events going on there so I can post them and we could get groups each island together.

Great! Thanks Marne and I can't wait to meet you. If you all happen to have your own life jackets and can bring them, that would be great, if not, no worries.
