Sylvester Manor Field Trip with SSLMA
http://sylvestermanor.org
Field trips are very familiar to librarians and teachers. Find a destination; get your travel plans ready, your permission slips collected, and climb aboard the bus to be whisked away. Well, recently the officers and some members of SSLMA did just that: We found a destination, got our travel plans ready, omitted the permission slips, substituted a ferry for a bus and then embarked on a truly fascinating field trip of our very own. We went to Sylvester Manor located on Shelter Island. We brought a picnic lunch and met on the patio of the Manor where we turned back the hands of time. With the help of Maura Doyle, Preservation Programs Coordinator, and our own VP-Mary Charters, Docent. We had a wonderful engaging afternoon filled with
local history and beautiful scenery.
