Greetings!
Well, we are now more than halfway through our Cispus experience and the weather has been holding--keep up those warm & sunny thoughts. High school students are doing a fine job with their cabin groups; I think they benefit as much from this experience as the sixth graders.
Now here's your update:
Field studies have gone really well as have recreations and cabin time; could be partly because of the wonderful weather. Since it's usually the rain that bogs things down, and the only precipitation we've had was about 11:30 last night, that has helped things go so smoothly.
Food's been great & the kids are eating plenty of it. The nurse has had minimal visitors--mostly upset tummies and a scrape or two.
We had a super scary campfire last night, along with some amazing skits and cadences--I'm sure we will receive some Academy Award nominations shortly.
Two other schools joined us yesterday, so we welcomed them this morning at breakfast with a song.
Tonight will be "Talent Night", so I'm sure your students will regale you with stories of that, too.
Tomorrow we will pack up, clean up, then tour the Mossyrock Dam and have a sack lunch at a park.
I would estimate we will roll in to the Tenino Middle School parking lot at ON FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23rd BETWEEN 2:15 p.m. and 2:40 p.m. If you have not already done so, please MAKE ARRANGEMENTS FOR SOMEONE TO PICK YOUR STUDENT UP. Your child will be so tired, fighting the regular school bus with a suitcase, bunch of dirty clothes, sleeping bag, & pillow is almost more than he/she can bear.
See you tomorrow (Friday, October 23rd),
Michele Humble (Trekker)
