"I loved to meet a tree. Everybody got a partner and blind folded them. Then they led them to a tree. Some people hugged them. Some people smelled them. Some people also touched them. It was fun."
"Dana (our guide) told us about a hollowed tree called the Welcome Tree. The Welcome Tree is actually alive with charcoal smothered on the insides (from a fire inside the tree). We used the charcoal as black war paint (because black was the only color for war paint)."
"After the card hike, we needed to build a house for Sluggy the slug. We found a little tee-pee made out of sticks and everyone started to work on it. Eventually it was the most luxurious home for our friend Sluggy. (Some students worked on their own Sluggy Mansion.) Sadly, since it was a national park, we had to destroy Sluggy's mansion in the end."
"Joining stump club was really fun. We climbed through 2 stumps to join it. One stump was on the ground and you crawled through it like a log, the other you would stand up and walk through it. You would get a high five and you were in."
"The Marymere Falls were beautiful. I can't wait to go back some time! I really recommend going and hiking there."
"We went to Barnes Point Creek for science fun. We did oxygen levels, macro-invertebrates, ph levels, and turbidity. I did macro-invertebrates."
"The cookie circle is when you say your flower. The rose was when you say what was the best thing that happened that day. Your thorn is what did not go well. Your bud is what you were going to do the next day."
"Okay, so there is a cube with names and numbers and colors. I'll let you try to solve it, a.k.a find out the name and numbers and color. Gray: 1. Alma, top number 4, bottom number 2. (Opposite side) 2. Alfred, top number 6, bottom number 2. (New side) Red: 1. Rob, top and bottom numbers 3. (Opposite side) 2. Roberta, top number 7, bottom number 3. (New side) Purple: 1. Frank, top number 4, bottom number, 5." What number is on the opposite side of Frank?
"At the campfire, the first thing we did were fun skits. Skit 1 was about something we learned. Skit 2 was about some thing that could have gone horribly wrong. Skit 3 was about something funny. Then the three-headed professor came. He/she knew everything. Then we read a story and made a rainstorm. We also sang and danced. Then we had s'mores!"

"I liked being the hopper. You cleared the plates and set them. You also got to eat first."
"We really liked the canoe ride. We hurt afterwards, but it was really fun. We got to enjoy the view and the silent moments. The deepest point was 250 ft below sea level or 650 ft below the surface."
"In NatureBridge we played a lot of games. Those games were super fun."
We had a great time at NatureBridge. Be sure to join us next week at Gathering for the PowerPoint and presentation on the entire trip!
