Ranger Allison Powell visited Our Lady of the Lake School's after care program recently, to teach the children about Log Cabin Presidents. She talked to the kids about what it was like to grow up in a log cabin, and shared fun activities: they constructed a mini log cabin out of foam logs, tried their hands at tabletop log cabin building, experimented with "combing" wool, and made simple dolls out of clothes pins and material scraps. They wrapped up this informative session with a presidential trivia game. After care director Debbie Barberio believes that when learning is fun, everyone is a winner, and looks forward to planning more fun activities to make sure that after school time is quality time at Our Lady of the Lake School.
