Northwoods lake helps get kids interested in science

BOULDER JUNCTION - Northwoods researchers want to get kids excited about science. It's one reason students from four local schools gathered at the UW-Trout Lake Station in Boulder Junction to study the local environment.

Students from North Lakeland, Lake du Flambeau, AVW, and MHLT went out on Trout Lake and Trout Bog to study the differences between the two lakes.

"We bring the kids out here to share some science, to try to get them excited about science," said UW-Trout Lake Station Scientist Susan Knight. "This place is covered with lakes, and we think it's a great opportunity for kids here in the Lakeland area to know more about their lakes."
