Here’s to the land of the longleaf pine. The summer land where the sun doth shine. At Weymouth Woods/Sandhills Nature Preserve on the Piedmont East Science Trail, you can walk among the longleaf pines–some of them hundreds of years old. Did you know that these gentle giants once covered millions of acres in the southeastern US? And once you are tired of looking up, it’s time to look around and find something else to study here. What will you find when you go?

The NC Science Trail has partnered with the NC State Parks to bring you tons of new scavenger hunts this summer. Explore the wildlife, plants, trees, and outdoor recreation at state parks across the state. All you have to do is download the Goosechase app, enter the 6-digit “Join Code” (K1UJV3) and start your adventure at the Weymoouth Woods/Sandhills Nature Preserve Visitor Center. Adventures can be completed at any time all summer long. Complete at least 7 out of 10 missions and redeem your points back at the Visitor Center for prizes.
