The Darien Community Association Hosts The Methodist Family Center Preschool

From Methodist Family Center Preschool: On Friday, October 6th, the Pre-K students at Methodist Family Center Preschool, along with their teachers and the school director, took a field trip to the Darien Community Association. There they met Chris Filmer, DCA Board Member and Tour Guide, who led them on an outdoor exploration of the property. The children explored the stump walk, rock spiral and log walks and hunted for worms. They checked out bird boxes and feeders, bat boxes and the butterfly garden.

“We were delighted to spend our morning at the DCA, and the children enjoyed themselves in this incredibly immersive, educational experience,” said Laurie Andersen, MFCP Director.
