Traverse Climbing Wall!!


We now have a traverse climbing wall! The kids must keep there feet below the red line and work their way from left to right across the wall. This is an excellent way to improve upper body strength and problem solving skills. We are lucky to have it!

Running and Fishing Club Dates


The dates for the Falcon Flyers Running Club are March 10, 12, 17, 19, 24, 26, 31, and April 2nd. There is a chance we will have the club go for a week or two after spring break so the kids can be ready to participate Wild In The Woods run that the high school track team puts on. Snacks will be provided, parents are welcome to come out!

The dates for the fishing club are April 28, 30, May 5, 7, 12, 14, 19, and 21. As always I have a limited number of rods and reels for the students to borrow. The only thing that the student needs to bring is a life jacket, a snack is provided also. Parents are welcome and encouraged to come out, I would like to have a ratio of 3 students to 1 adult.
