The PRHS Outdoor Environmental Science class completed their Fall Camping Trip to the school’s property at Woodpecker Flats. Students worked in small groups to build shelters from specific terrains around the world. Throughout the next few days, they will create an informative presentation including pictures of their shelter and real shelters from their specific area. The students definitely worked hard on their projects, but they also had time to play a good ole game of hide & seek in the dark, make s’mores (one student had never had one before!) and hobo pies, played Euchre and Uno, and sat around the bonfire listening to music and chatting. They were thankful and appreciative of the opportunity to go on the trip. Kudos to Mr. Thompson for all of his hard work prepping food and organizing the trip!
