Talk about core memories. We took advantage of the teacher workdays on Monday and Tuesday by taking these girls CAMPING in Covington. We started with a hike at beautiful Douthat State Park, where the fall colors were at their peak. We then set up camp next to the Jackson River and then girls learned how to pitch tents and build a fire. This was the first time camping for some of them and there was a little bit of nervous energy, but all of the girls overcame their fear of sleeping outdoors. The next day, we visited the historic Warm Springs Pools to warm up our chilly bones. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better fall overnight experience.
