Faith Lutheran students enjoy Collin County Adventure Camp

Published: Sunday, November 11, 2012 12:13 AM CST
Collin County Adventure Camp in Anna, Texas, was the site for Outdoor Education on November 2, for students in third and fourth grade at Plano's Faith Lutheran School.


"The day's educational adventure began with the rock-climbing wall. Under the watchful supervision of camp personnel, students tried scaling the heights and rappelling down again," said Faith Lutheran School teacher Cheryl Wildauer of Allen. "This was followed by some team building games that required strategy and dexterity."

After lunch students hiked to an area sectioned off into four stations where they met historical characters - a cowboy, a pioneer, an Indian, and a soldier. Students not only heard narratives from each of these characters but were guided through hands-on experiences such as making butter and learning archery skills.

"At the conclusion of the day, students appeared unanimous that this was indeed time well spent in the great outdoors!" added Wildauer.
