Walking School Bus

Fridays after school until November (when it gets too cold) Ella and I will be taking part in the walking school bus.  Rock Bridge Elementary has a great trail that you can access behind the school that will take you to Rock Bridge State Park.  The hike is a little over a mile.  The hike used to be before school so my kids didn't really want to get up and give it a try.  Last year they decided at the end of the year to move the hike to after school since our start time changed and they weren't getting a lot of participation.  Ella and Sam both were excited to give it a go after school and really enjoyed it.  The hike ends at a playground so the kids can play and spend time with the other Rock Bridge hikers. 
This year Ella is signed up to hike every week and I am going to help.  I will be signing kids in after school and walking the hike with them.  It should be a great way to get exercise, fresh air and have some fun!
