Day One High Sierra

We have made it and had a great day. We got here and had a very informative Orientation Hike followed by a delicious pizza lunch. We then took a nice hike and learned about our 5 senses. Next we had some free time and visited the canteen to fill up on snacks. The students were then challenged with a few puzzles that they needed to complete as a group. It was nice to see the teamwork come together to solve these puzzles and challenges. We wrapped up the day with a fantastic pasta dinner and a night nike. The students participated in a really cool experiment using life savers. They are currently getting ready for bed and getting ready for a busy day again tomorrow.
