The Reading Plus program has expanded to include 20 sixth graders this year. That is a total of 55 sixth, seventh, and eighth graders.
The kids visited Camp Lutherwald last Friday to have a day of team building activities.
Chaperones for the trip included Angie and Jason Worman, Rick and Deb Brickley, Chris Wolf, Kim Steckbeck and Missy Lambert. Mel Carpenter did the kayak teaching. Amy Henderson, an education director from Grace Lutheran Church, Columbia City and Timothy Hill, a teen motivational director from Ohio, directed games to build team spirit and direction.
During the day the groups went hiking, played team building games and, of course, kayaking and canoeing. They also built a fire and roasted hot dogs for lunch with parents as very supportive helpers.
