Discover the SOLO Field Trip Program
With our new “Study Outdoors, Learn Outdoors” (SOLO) field trip program, the Poudre Heritage Alliance has created an opportunity for students to explore the Cache la Poudre River National Heritage Area safely during the COVID-19 pandemic. We expanded our Learning in Our Watershed program to offer an outdoor, self-guided learning experience, building on the existing routes from our Community Wellness program. Created by two local educators, SOLO Field Trip routes align with Colorado Academic Standards, connect to the landscape of the Poudre River, and incorporate interpretive signs created by the Poudre Heritage Alliance. Suitable for teachers to assign their students or as a fun family excursion!
We are proud to promote the Cache la Poudre River as an engaging and inspirational learning environment. The “normal” may have changed, but our commitment to helping youth understand and value the Poudre River has not.
