Our St. George location took a day trip to visit Snow Canyon National Park. The park features a canyon carved from the red and white sandstone in the Red Mountains. This beautiful place had so much to offer. The group got to go on a fun hike around the park and even enjoyed a picnic table in the shade. It was certainly hot but the light breeze helped with the heat. Overall, everyone had a fun day!

Our SLC location got to spend a day at the National Ability Center in Park City. The group was so excited to visit this center. At the National Ability Center, their goal is to empower individuals of all abilities by building self esteem, confidence and life long skills, through sport, recreation and educational programs. Our group was given the opportunity to try the challenge course. This course had a rock climbing wall, rope bridge and even a zip line. How awesome is that? The group got to try different parts of the course if they wished and everyone enjoyed doing it together. It was a fun and successful day!

One of our Vernal locations favorite thing to do is visit the Utah Field House of Natural History State Park Museum. This awesome museum features prehistoric geological, anthropological and natural history items found near the Uinta Mountains and within the Uinta Basin. The group loves looking at all of the amazing displays and getting to learn more about prehistoric life. It is always a good time!

They also got to have a picnic and really enjoy the wonderful weather. They loved getting to spend some time outside and this activity was certainly a success.

Our Orem group got to explore The Butterfly Biosphere at Thanksgiving Point. The museum had over 40,000 square feet filled with  thousands of butterflies from around the globe. In addition to the butterflies, they got to see tarantulas, beetles as big as their fists, and many more creepy crawly friends. Everyone enjoyed the day and loved getting to experience something new.

Our Ogden location got to spend the day exploring the Hill Aerospace Museum. One of our favorite things at North Eastern Services is learning about the history and getting to experience it first hand. At this museum, the group got to see over 90 aircrafts from around the world. They also got to see a variety of equipment, pictures, vehicles and other items of historical interest. The group had so much fun getting to learn more about history and this was a great way to do so. We will certainly be visiting more museums soon.
