Last week, twenty fifth graders were invited to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Haiku Trail at Van Buren State Park. Students listened to presentations from various speakers, including Dr. Marcia Sloan Latta, who is part of the Ohio State Parks Foundation and the wife of U.S. Representative Bob Latta. After the ceremony, they hiked the trail, read the haikus, saw some animals that could be found at the state park, and participated in other educational activities.
