As Officer Hyde said today, "without change, there would be no butterflies." We were able to enjoy the big change on our campus today with the outdoor pavilion full of Camp Calhoun families after a wonderful performance by all groups! It was hot but worth it! We're excited for future school events to be held here! We were also able to literally watch butterflies change over the last few weeks and released them all today!





Our last Thursday of camp was a great one! Tennessee Aquarium's outreach program came for a visit and lesson today about animal classification! We also had June Dairy Month Chairman Grace DeBusk and two of her dairy heifers. Students learned about the difference between beef and dairy cattle and how their "earrings" have a purpose other than style!
