Camp Rainbow

Shown above is the hoola-hoop macro display at Camp Rainbow.

At Camp Rainbow, the live macro display really caught a lot of eyes! The kids loved it and the counselors too! There were lots of scuds, caddisflies in their cases, sowbugs, a crane fly, a salamander, & more. To top it off, after the kids were done viewing the macro display, they played macro match to determine the water quality in three sections of Camp Rainbow Creek.

In a thank you letter I received, one of the staff wrote, "Thank you so much for coming out to camp this summer. The nature activities were so great! The kids learned a lot and had so much fun with you. You put a lot of smiles on a lot of kids faces!"

For those of you who may not know, Camp Rainbow is not just your "normal" everyday camp! It is a camp for seriously ill children with cancer & other life-threatening blood disorders. It is a place where these kids can go and feel like just a kid again. It truly is a wonderful place. I was so happy to be a part of it! I had a great time working with the kids. They really were a terrific group!
