This is one of the babies at the Lewisville Independent School District Outdoor Learning Area (LISDOLA).
LISDOLA (Lewisville Independent School District Outdoor Learning Area) is an eighty-acre tract of land located on the south side of Lake Lewisville Dam in Denton County. The landscape boasts wetlands, forests, fields, rivers and streams and contains approximately five miles of hiking trails. The outdoor learning area was created in the fall of 1999 when the school district erected two portable classrooms.

This is the main area where they take different levels yearly, so it is a continuing education. The Master Naturalists of Texas, have volunteer to help with trails, hikes, etc. This trip we were making a trail guide. It is located at: http://www.everytrail.com/guide/lewisvil...
I introduced the co-ordinator to the Project Noah education section as a way to do a database study on how the 'hoppers' are doing on the restored prairie. Lots of fun volunteer activities.
The school district created this habitat area?! That's wonderful! Outdoor learning area, indeed! Standing applause for the forward thinking of your school district! :-)
