Rumble in the Jungle Summer Camp

July 5, 2015
"There's a rumble in the jungle.
There's a whisper in the trees.
The animals are waking up
And rustling the leaves.
Rumble In the Jungle
2015 Rumble In the Jungle Summer Camp was a huge success with 23 happy campers!
Our jungle explorations of snakes, insects, and animals, that live in the jungles, was polished off with a visit from Animal Ed.ventures. Animals that came to visit our campers were:
African Hedgehog
Rare Madagascar Hedgehog
Ferrets
Snakes
African Fox
Many exotic fruits, grown in tropical areas, were introduced: coconut, bananas, papaya, and kiwi to name a few.
Lynne Mitchell, a GFCC 3s teacher, loaned her son's pet boa constrictor to the camp for the week. Children observed the boa through it's clear aquarium home. He was quite a center of interest.
Of course, no camp is complete without a Water Fun Day with sprinklers, misters, water squirters, and frozen treats.
