Starting July 1, the Sippican Lands Trust will offer a StoryWalk at its Hagemann Woods property in Marion. This year’s StoryWalk at Hagemann Woods features The Snail and the Whale by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler.
StoryWalk is an innovative and delightful way for children and adults to enjoy reading and the outdoors at the same time. Laminated pages from a children’s book are attached to wooden stakes, which are installed along an outdoor path. As you stroll down the trail, you’re directed to the next page in the story.
Hagemann Woods is a 23-acre parcel acquired by Sippican Lands Trust in 1998 and features white pines, oaks, red maples and mixed wetlands providing a wide range of wildlife habitat. The parking area for Hagemann Woods is located off of Point Road approximately two miles south of the intersection of Route 6 (Wareham Road) and Point Road in Marion.
StoryWalk at Hagemann Woods will be open from sunrise to sunset from Saturday, July 1 through Tuesday, August 1. Adults and kids of all ages are welcome and for further information about the StoryWalk at Hagemann Woods, go to www.sippicanlandstrust.org or call Sippican Lands Trust at 508-748-3080.
