This summer the student ambassadors visited several places around Utah County to learn more about where teachers can take their classes on field trips. We've compiled our favorites in a list below that you can download and print.
In our list we've noted the location, a description of what the field trip entails, the cost, and the contact information to schedule.
Check it out below!
