The Parties
The students began the summer with a day at the OSU challenge course.
This group loved to sing.
And smile.
They also worked very hard! 
Taking it easy: 
A new event this year - the group made up a scavenger hunt (the beetle is part of the hunt!)
The annual pool party bash at Dr. Harrist's.
We ended the summer with a party at Dr. Page's.
