Safety Camp

Kaydree's friend Brynn wanted to do Safety Camp so her mom asked me if Kaydree would be interested. When it comes to doing something with Brynn, Kaydree is always in! Words can not express how grateful we are that Kaydree participated in this camp!
The city puts on a Safety Camp run by Police Officers, Fire Fighters and Paramedics, every summer for two days, for Third and Fourth Graders. It was the best 30 dollars we have ever spent.
They got a T-shirt, water bottle, Bike Helmet, two lunches, four snacks, a medal, ice cream and root beer social, a dance, and a day of swimming.
The best thing they received was the relationships they formed with each other, the police officers, fire fighters and paramedics. Kaydree learned about fire safety, poison control, being alone and safe, bicycle safety, seat belt safety, first aid (which she has performed on Karsyn twice already, in a very serious manner!), and water safety.
On Tuesday, it was extremely hot and humid and Kaydree came home filthy dirty because they had a DJ and danced in the dirt and then got sprayed down by a fire truck! Talk about fun...
Hailey, Brynn and Kaydree are inseparable! They had such a great school year together that they were due to hang out for two full days, again!
After two full days of Safety Camp, Vacation Bible School (pics to come) and soccer this week, Kaydree is beyond worn out! It's GREAT!

That looks so so much fun- and it's so cheap! I wish they had something like that down here. I'm glad she had a good time and learned a lot!
