Creative Progress

The girls in the Big Sisters program at Five Rivers have made great progress on their living history books.





We also had a surprise visitor! (One of the girls was writing about the eating habits of a porcupine, so one magically appeared!)

Next week, at our final session, each girl will share her story with the group. We'll also be celebrating our creativity. The girls were in charge of planning the party. No detail was overlooked! We will have music, pizza, wings, brownies, cookies, ice cream, and soda. (I'm bringing some veggies and dip to balance out the buffet!)

I think I've only seen a live porcupine once at a preserve, and he was walking away from me. It was interestine to see one actually moving. What a great experience for the students!

I've seen them out by the cabin and walking across Route 29 near Rockwood on several occasions. They are interesting, to say the least! The kids are mesmerized by the live animals at the nature center, especially the owl. He hoots for us! These are rare experiences for the city kids.
