Middle School Day Trip- August 6th- Guppy Gulch
We will head about 45 mins south to an old quarry which is now a recreational site. 20+ inflatables, rock walls, obstacle courses, and the BLOB! Bring a lunch, extra clothes, SUNSCREEN and probably two towels. We will stop for pizza on the way home. It's becoming a Middle School tradition.
Registration is open.
