Friday was a fun day with Andrew and some of his class mates. All of the kids who volunteered for leadership positions like- Patrol or Recycle collectors or other school groups got to go for a trip to Seattle Center for a Reward. I quickly volunteered for this trip. It was so nice to be with a group of kids who are responsible and respectful of others. They really were the cream of the crop! We had no problems with kids. No worrying about what they were going to do.
They had a photography scavenger hunt set up for the kids. We literally ran all over the Center looking for places from the clues that they were given. It was very good exercise for the chaperones! We were all out of breath at the end.
The weather held out and it did not rain! It would have been nice to be sunny, but it was not too bad.
The kids were so excited to get to the fountain! We all ate lunch around it and then the kids were let loose in the water! A lot of then had swim suits on under cloths and had towels ready. A little crazy, but they loved it. I don't think any of them stayed dry. It was fun to watch!
Kind of sad that Andrew is in 5th grade now. No more field trips like this. Middle school does not do a lot of Field trips.
It had been Years since I had been up in the Space Needle. It was fun to see the sights and see how the kids enjoyed it. It is a pretty expensive thing to do as a family. I would say that over half the kids had never been up to the top before. And it will probably be a long time before they go again. It was a great Reward for them all.
Good job Lake Hills PTSA!
