April 12, 2014 Field Trip

We will be taking a road trip field trip to Green Cay & Wakodahatchee Wetlands in the Delray, Boyton Beach area of Palm Beach County on Saturday April 12th.  We will meet at the Cracker Barrel on Wickham Rd just west of I-95 at Exit #191. We will meet at 6:00 am and I will allow a 15 minute grace period and we will pull out at 6:15 am sharp.  It is about a 2 hr drive.  I would suggest on bringing snacks, drinks, sunscreen and lunch.  We will carpool to reduce the amount of vehicles going and it is customary to share the gas expense.  If we don't have a large turnout we might be able to stop for lunch somewhere along the way. 

Those of you that have not been to these 2 places it is easy walking on wooden boardwalks.  There are

restrooms at both locations and Green Cay has a nature center and gift shop.  We will go to Wakodahatchee

Wetlands first and then Green Cay.  They are only about a 5-10 minute drive apart.  In case folks show up

after our 6:15 am departure time below are the address for both locations.  The weather looks very favorable.  High 78 and 0% rain chances as of today.
