I spent my spare time this spring making this memory quilt for the gym wall at the elementary school. Each year the 6th graders get to go to "outdoor experience" camp. It's really for those r children who never get to experience camping. I was on the quilting committee. My expertise was much needed. I am responsible for the zipline, lettering and girl. Way to contribute!

At the end of the school year the Lone Tree Police Department teaches the D.A.R.E program to all the 6th graders. It stands for Drug Awareness and Resistance Education.

Claire was asked to read the essay she wrote on making choices and how this program has helped her. She recieved a special medal for excellence.

Gee, you'd never know Claire started the year in a class of kids she didn't know.
