To Parents/Guardians:

Purpose of the field trip: Students  will be participating in a day trip to Timberline Ranch to experience God's creation as well as solidify relationships that have been building throughout the year. Students will be exposed to activities they maybe have never had the chance to do (i.e. horseback riding, archery, rock climbing, low ropes course, frisbee golf). Students will gain experiences and create bonds from shared experiences that will last beyond the school year. Our hope is that your students will come away from this day with a deeper sense of community and friendship.
