This week at Hannah and Friends Summer Camp…

Kaley’s view:

Science Alive week flew by with all of the fun activities and guests! The last day of Science Alive week was our Earth Day. The campers were elated to have our special guest Mike Hoffman, meteorologist from WNDU news station, come to visit Hannah and Friends! Mike talked about his beginnings as a meteorologist and he was even able to get the campers engaged and excited about the weather! Mike’s presentation ended with a picture with all of the campers and Mike shared that picture on the evening news! 

The campers were able to make homemade volcanoes! We used dish soap, vinegar, baking soda, water, glitter and food coloring! They were a lot of fun to decorate and it was exciting to see them explode! 

The campers were able to visit the Scott, Mandy and Megan in the barn. The campers were able to learn about the horses and Scott was able to talk about his horse, Cosmo! Scott works in the barn but also comes to camp! The campers loved seeing the horses in the barn and were even able to pet Cosmo! 

The campers visited so many different places at Hannah and Friends! The campers last visit of the day was in the green house. Matt, Chris, Christin and Jan showed the campers all of the plants in the greenhouse and even the plants growing in the garden. The campers were able to harvest beans, cucumbers, zucchini, and tomatoes. This was particularly rewarding for a particular camper. He was thrilled to see that harvesting the vegetables resulted in taking food home to his family! He was do enthusiastic about his work and even took on a leadership role during the process by helping other campers harvest in the garden. Another great week at Hannah and Friends summer camp!
