Success!

By Chason Ford

It has finally been completed...and what a great success! This past Thursday was the beginning of our classes at Camp Baldwin in Elberta, Alabama. A group of 5th graders from Northside Private School in Dothan, Alabama, made their way for a two day field trip, to learn about  estuary life and surrounding nature. Our two days were spent in three places: the classroom, the ropes course, and out on the water. Participants were presented with native inhabitants of the area such as, snakes, turtles, frogs, lizards, and even alligators. We used this activity as a hands-on tool to learn about the amphibians that live in Alabama. Additionally, team building was accomplished through the the rope's course and our time on the sailboat taught us about another "world", under the sea. 

Not only was this an amazing educational experience, but great fun and fellowship was enjoyed by all.  For further information on how your group can take part in this exciting, fun-filled educational program, please contact Rusty Davidson with Compass Ministries @ 251-752-0367.
