FIFTH GRADE ON A FIELD TRIP

Our fifth graders made their fall field trip to Cathedral Caverns, November 7.  

One of the activities was gem mining.  Our Elkmont folk were able to practice their panning skills.

Originally called the Bat Cave, it was under private ownership when it was first opened in the 1950s.  In 2000, it became a state park.

Cathedral Caverns is a short drive from several great north Alabama attractions including: Lake Guntersville, Monte Sano, Desoto and Buck’s Pocket State Parks, Scottsboro, Huntsville, and the Marshall Space Flight Center.
