This morning we feasted on French toast, bacon, and eggs before packing up the luggage and doing a quick clean of the cabins. Students will participate in our Jeopardy game and show what they learned this week. Students will “run the gauntlet” of staff high-fives on their way to the buses and we’ll give them a great send off.
Next week we’ll welcome McAuliffe, Valley View, and Arturo Sanchez schools. This morning we celebrated our breakfast of biscuits and gravy and packed our trail lunches to have out on the trails. Students will be doing botany and ecology lessons, and we will have our last students "accept the challenge" for the climbing wall. Tonight we are having our Skit Night, where the students and staff will be presenting their skits that they have worked on all week. It's been a great week!
he students had a great breakfast with eggs, bacon, and potatoes. We may have rain today but indoor spaces are still available to use to keep students warm, dry, and healthy.
They are out on their activities this morning, including lessons in botany, geology, ecology, and more. After lunch we're back out on the trails again before coming back for a dinner of fresh made pizza, and tonight students have astronomy or the night hike - whichever they didn't have Tuesday! They are always one of the top experiences for our students and we're excited to do them with the students. Our webcam times for schools are: Country Springs: Wednesday at 4:15pm Eagle Canyon: Wednesday at 5:00pm This morning was a pancake breakfast, and students are out on botany and geology lessons. They will return for a hamburger lunch, and then do afternoon lessons. And of course it's Taco Tuesday for dinner! Eagle Canyon students have astronomy lessons tonight, and Country Springs students have a night hike.
Our webcam times for schools are: Country Springs: Wednesday at 4:15pm Eagle Canyon: Wednesday at 5:00pm This morning we welcomed Eagle Canyons Elementary and Country Springs Elementary to Thousand Pines. We have about 1-2 feet of snow throughout the camp, so the students are of course having a great time with that. Cabins all have heat, and we have plowed or shoveled the main walkways through the camp so students can get to their cabins, the dining hall, and other places. They will still do normal hikes and activities, but our staff have assigned 'meeting spaces' that they can use as classrooms to keep students dry and warm.
We had our lunch together, with hamburgers, fries, and veggies, and the students went out on their teambuilding activities and opening lessons. Tonight is our famous Dance Night and the Opening Campfire program. We are excited for this great week!
