Welcome to a new week! For today’s Magical Moment, we have photos from the Upper Middle School Campertunity trip last fall. This has always been a special and much-anticipated weekend for our 7th and 8th grade students. They have the chance to get to know eachother while playing, hiking, and having fun just being kids on a campout. One parent remarked that it was especially neat to see how these middle schoolers gathered around Mr. Stavros as he read to them or told stories. These students had a blast!
Track A 7th grader Jonah Jenkins commented: “So one of my favorite memories was probably when we all came together at the camp fire because that was fun and memorable. Also one of my thoughts was I enjoyed the ride up because it was fun, we sang and talked but it was definitely long. Also, we went rock climbing and hiking and it was a bit dangerous so you had to be careful but extremely fun. I had a great trip and I'm glad it was at the beginning of the year.”
Enjoy a few of the moments caught on camera:
