Our Teachers’ Free Morning was received by those who attended with such excitement and appreciation that we plan to make it an annual event. In fact, we had such a positive response in signing up for Fall Field Trips that we are planning to invite all the Elementary Principals and Superintendents for a Principal’s Free Morning Friday, August 7 from 8:30 am-1 pm.

We start off the day at 8:30 with registration, donuts and orange juice and finish it with a wonderful free lunch and sampling of the many flavors of the best Homemade Fudge you ever tasted! The immediate families are also invited. So if you know of a Principal or Superintendent-we may not get word to them all-let them know and have them email or call us for reservations.

Here is the schedule: 

8:30 am:  Registration, donuts and orange juice

9:00 am:  Welcome by Dr. Glenn Orr, Founder, and outline of the morning

Then the following:  Lesson on the Life of a Pumpkin which is what we teach this fall.  Then a hayride around the farm where we see horses-we’re the largest horse training farm in Oklahoma with 240 stalls for horses-the pumpkin patch-a free pumpking this fall-and the start of the Corn Maze, dedicated to the military. Next is a train ride.  It holds about 100 people and is the only train in the U.S. that looks, sounds and puffs like a steam engine, yet has the safety of a diesel.  Then they go to the Animal Barn and pet the animals, washing their hands before and after.

Next they go to the Exercise Area where they can jump on the only two Giant Jumping Pillows in Oklahoma that are the rage in Australia and Europe.  They can ride the pedal cars for ages 2 to 92!  There are Hand Cars, Regulation Sand Volleyball and Horseshoes as well.  Oh, and panning for rubies, sapphires and emeralds.  Then there is the maze! What a fun time! 

Here are just three of the many positive comments we received:

From Christe, Kindergarten of Covington-Douglas: “The whole experience was wonderful-I had no idea what to expect and I had a great time. My Kindergarteners will love it!”

From Katherine, 5^th Grade of Jackson Elementary: “There were learning and teaching opportunities everywhere. I loved the information boards with questions and answers. The staff members are so nice and helpful.”

From Kari of Indian Meridian Elementary: “Well organized and very fun for all ages!! Thanks!”
