Fresh Air Fund Visit 2016- Part 2














After what felt like a low key start to Sha's trip, thanks to the weather, Monday was an exhausting day!  The three older boys started the day at Titcomb Mountain for the recreation department's "Wild" camp.  They studied some outdoor survival skills and really enjoyed themselves.  We picked them up from there and brought them to a tennis lesson.  Shakeinne was a great sport and worked so hard trying something new.  

One of Shakeinne's request for the week was to hike a mountain, so after tennis we hiked up Bald Mountain for some amazing views.  I was a bit outnumbered, but the kids all did such a great job with minimal complaining:)  THEN, we stopped home for a quick supper so that we could get to soccer camp that evening.  Needless to say, everyone slept well this night!

Tuesday we finally got to get some tubing and fishing in.  Gabe had to check the bees so Noah and Shakeinne were his assistant bee keepers. That evening we had more soccer camp and a fun swimming party with friends afterwards. On the last day of Shakeinne's visit the boys enjoyed another day of "Wild" camp where they learned some first aid.  We did more swimming, went to the movies and finished the day with bowling after soccer camp.  

We had an awesome time Shakeinne and can't wait to see you again next year! Thanks for joining us!
