The ZQuest staff is exploring the possibility of shaking up the end-of-year events that have been mainstays in the past. Primarily, we are looking at possibly moving away from a camp experience every year and replacing that with grade-band-specific "big trips," such as a Chicago trip, John Ball Zoo, or Rebounderz, for example. These would be held on alternating years to larger trips like Mackinac Island or DC.
We would also like to explore changing up how field day runs, making it less labor-intensive for parents and just as fun for kids. We still want to keep this experience as a K-8 event, as that is a big part of our ZQ culture. Some ideas could include a school picnic, kickball tournament, or allowing students to choose from several different activities.
