Camp Widjiwagan

Twice a year, all Academy teachers gather for professional development conferences.  Each conference is usually amazing but this year's spring conference was unlike any other!  It was held at Camp Widjiwagan in Antioch, TN where we focused on team building.  The morning was spent outside as centers raced around the camp on a Team Quest.  The afternoon was spent indoors learning camp songs, activities, and more!  What we love most about these days is the time we get to spend together.  Check out what all we did to become better teachers for your family.

 The Directors from each center had to pump up everyone in the morning.  They did so by singing YMCA and pulled Mr. Austin up on stage!

 Ready for our quest.

 We gathered at the Front Porch Amphitheater for the morning session.  The scenery was beautiful!

 Ms. Kylie was brave enough to climb the wall!

 Ms. Megan made it all the way to the top of Mount Widji!

 We needed a little rest from that heat during lunch time, haha!
