Wild Explorers - Elk Badge

The kids are working on earning their Elk Badge in their Wild Explorers Club.

Their assignment last week:

PICK UP GARBAGE AT AN OUTDOOR AREA NEAR YOU
"Caring for others is also about caring for the environment around you. This week, find a safe place away from traffic and clean up the trash others have left behind. You'll need a plastic garbage bag along with gloves. Bring your family or friends along to make it fun and safe. You are becoming a "Trash Warrior!"


We headed off to a local park and the kids spent half an hour picking up trash.

 Once they were done, they played for a bit in the park.

It was pretty hot and muggy out so our trip was short, but they had fun!
