Darke County Parks
Awards Bird Feeder Grant
The Darke County Park District recently awarded 3 classrooms in Darke
County a grant to receive a bird feeder to be placed outside their
classroom window. Along with the bird feeder, each classroom will
receive bird seed to keep the feeder full for the winter and special
visits from a naturalist throughout the school year. Recipients
of the award are Mississinawa Valley first grade teacher Kathy
Armstrong, Versailles Elementary second grade teacher Karen Albers and
Tri-Village fourth grade teacher Sarah Drew. “It would thrill me
to share my love for birds with my students, but even more importantly,
it would be one more chance to help them gain a lifelong appreciation
for nature in general,” said teacher Kathy Armstrong. The Darke
County Park District is also very excited as this is just another
opportunity to reach many different students across Darke County.
