HENDERSON â Though the day started out a bit iffy in terms of weather, the skies cleared and the sun shone Wednesday afternoon, just in time for a Great Lakes Education Workshop aimed at educating teachers about various topics and resources available for their classrooms.
Under one of the pavilions at Southwick Beach State Park, representatives from New York Sea Grant, New York State Parks and the state Department of Environmental Conservation gathered to speak to and demonstrate for teachers from schools such as Belleville-Henderson, Carthage and South Jefferson, as well as from places like Central Square and Mexico in Oswego County.
