WINTER-SPRING, 2016
“The Wurming Trend”
A Note From Diane
It’s common knowledge that the frosty winter weather is not popular
among the worm population. The Night crawler species, for example,
head “south” by burrowing just below the frost line, waiting it out until
the soil “wurms” up to a comfortable temperature. Humans tend to
have similar cold weather habits. Some high tail it south to a warmer climate, while others just stay put and
burrow in deeper as temperatures drop. The Discover Club species however, is a hardy breed, with a blend of all
the best characteristics. We thrive on fun and social activities! Not sitting back, waiting for the thermometer to
rise...the Discover Clubber’s make their own rules and create their own “wurming” trend. And that trend always
includes travel and friends! :)
