On Saturday the group toured St. Patrick's Cathedral and EPIC Museum of Irish Immigration. During free time, some took in the archaeology museum or the Book of Kells. Some were lucky enough to happen upon a rugby match. And it finally stopped raining!
After a loooong Toronto layover, we arrived to a damp Dublin!
Students from the College in Schools Government class—representing both Upsala and Swanville—had an unforgettable experience on Wednesday during their visit to the Minnesota State Capitol! 🇺🇸
They toured the Capitol building, spent time on the House floor, and gained firsthand insight into how our state government operates. A big thank-you to Representative Schulz and his staff for the informative and engaging tour!
After their civic adventure, the students enjoyed some fun and relaxation at a Minnesota Twins game. ⚾
This trip wouldn’t have been possible without the generous support of the Upsala Lions Club and the Swanville Lions Club—thank you for making this educational experience a reality!
The Track & Field meet scheduled in Pierz this evening has been cancelled. There will be no practice for the Track & Field athletes.
