SAVE the DATE for GENI’s GeoFest: Summer Solstice at Angel Mounds State Historic Site
Join intrepid adventurers learning about one of the most unique Mounds Builders Communities in the world. Educator and Archaeologist Ben will spend the day guiding the group through the Site for a better understanding about the people and the environment ... and possible connections beyond the property boundaries. We will gather flora and fauna data, wander the newly renovated Education Center, explore Mississippian cultures, learn more about the changing landscape and land-use, and gain insight to the Site's relationship within the local/Ohio River Valley/Eastern U.S./continent/world regions. June 20 happens to be the Summer Solstice; so, enjoying the sunrise and its alignment with some of the Mounds is a must! Exploring a bit of Evansville's history, the role of the riverfront in the community, a Landing Ship Tank, and water management efforts for the area are also among items on the agenda ... TOO MUCH TO DO in Evansville!!! GENI will coordinate efforts, provide entry to the various sites, provide lunches/waters/snacks. Participants must make their own lodging arrangements; arrive earlier or stay longer for an extended Evansville experience. (PGP and GISP)
