Hickory Creek Nature Trail

The Nature Trail at Hickory Creek Elementary was funded by a $40,000.00 Goals 2000 Grant that was wrote by Hickory Creek librarian Patty Cantrell. She mapped out the trail, worded all the identification sites, and oversaw the work done on the trail.  The trail measures almost a half mile (.52). Patti and her husband have contributed many hours and hard work on the nature trail for students and faculty at Hickory Creek Elementary. The Nature Trail at Hickory Creek has been a great asset to the students and faculty. Many teachers and classrooms walk this trail everyday if weather permits.  The amphitheater is a great place for teachers to take their classrooms for lessons or just to take a break to take in the beautiful scenery and sounds of nature.  However, only Hickory Creek Elementary faculty, staff, and students are allowed to use the Nature Trail. The same school rules for Hickory Creek Elementary apply to the Nature Trail.
