LEAP Day 1
This week i've just started this volunteer program at school called LEAP. It stands for leadership educational adventure program and you get to take kids rock climbing, kayaking, backpacking and a bunch of other fun outdoor adventures. The first meeting was on Wednesday and the directors of the program went over the rules and regulations that we have to know. They told us what we will be doing while in this program, which is taking kids basically to have fun. They also talked about how we need to take CPR and first aid classes in order to be in this program. After they told us about what we will be doing, they took a huge plastic tarp on the ground and threw a bunch of spaghetti on it. It was actually pretty funny because everyone was eating their dinner off the ground. After we all ate we got in a circle and played the "chicken tag" game. The directors had set out a bunch of random objects in a circle and each student had to stand at each object. There's a rubber chicken on a box in the middle and one person stands at that and has to go up to another person and tag them with the chicken. Once they tag them with the chicken they have to place it on the box in the middle again and try to steal the other person's spot. The game was really fun and everyone playing bonded a lot. I'm definitely looking forward to being a part of LEAP.
