Field Days 2011

You know it's getting close to the end of the year when folks start talking about "field days."  When you've got six grade levels to cover and 1352 students, it truly takes "days" to git-r-done!

This year's field day experience was by far, one of the best ever!  Coach Estrella Bailey and her team did a fantastic job of planning, organizing and delivering one of the most fun-filled events of the year.  We are extremely grateful for the folks from the Mayport Naval Base who came out every day to assist.  They were a huge help to us and we wouldn't have survived the experience without them.

On a personal note, I headed up the line-dancing station under the pavillion.  Over a three-day period  in 98-degree weather, we did the "Cha Cha Slide," the "Limbo," the "Macarena," the "Chicken Dance" and the "Hokey Pokey" forty-nine times!


 
Until next time...

Bailey and her team really did do a fantastic job! You did well to stay out there all day long. It is really a fun time.
