After our Twins Clinic this summer we were sent free tickets to be given to whoever we saw fit, and of course that would be the kids that attended the clinic! Here are a few pictures from some families that enjoyed that beautiful day. It was Kids Day so they even were able to run the bases after!
A special thanks to the Twins Community Engagement program! What an incredible experience!

This week is fire prevention week so we decided it would be a good idea to teach some skills in PE class. Students: ~climbed down a ladder ~Stop, dropped, and rolled ~Crawled low below the smoke ~Saved someone ~and even were able to drive a pretend firetruck!
