Site description:
Pssssst... want to know a secret? Lake Ashby Park is one of Volusia County's best kept
secrets! This relaxing park offers a winding boardwalk through a hammock that is ideal for
birdwatching. Beautiful cypress knees are another natural feature to be admired. Picnic
pavilions, camping and horseshoes are available also.
Activity description:
Do you know where you're going? Do you
know how to get there? Use a compass! You'll feel confident depending on your compass
after a discussion on the proper use and function of this navigational piece of equipment.
Hike through Lake Ashby Park, in teams of two or three, on a timed, charted course. Meet
back at the point of origin where you'll complete your orientation exercise with a fun
achievement evaluation.
