Location: Middle Patuxent Environmental Area
5795 Trotter Road, Clarksville, MD 21029

Join Dean Boris Lushniak, Professor Jim Hagberg and the Howard County Department of Recreation and Parks to celebrate the opening of the “Heart Discovery Trail" -  an existing one-mile loop through the Middle Patuxent Environmental Area that includes 16 educational signs bearing heart facts and quizzes. Learn what your heart is made of, how often it beats in a day, how much blood it pumps and how much physical activity children need compared to adults as you wander, walk or even run along this scenic trail. The educational part of the trail will remain in place through February 21.
