Soon after moving here we learned that students in Colorado spend many years waiting for 6th grade. That's the year they get to spend 3 days in the Mountains having lessons and attending workshops during Outdoor Adventure. I was leery of sending her at first. We had only lived here a month, it was in September, and her spending the night with kids and adults we didn't know didn't sound good. But Sam was able to take a few days off work and go as a volunteer. It eased my fears, and was a great time for Shaye to spend with her dad. He got to know some of the girls she hung out with at school, and they got to do some of the activities together.
Shaye's group of 6th graders had their Outdoor Adventure at the YMCA facility in Winter Park, CO.
