We began the Rendezvous first thing in the morning. Everyone wanted to try on the hat!
As part of the Mountain Man Gauntlet, students had to run backwards 10 paces after "accidentally running into Blackfeet Indian women who were bathing in the river."
The second part of the gauntlet was crawling from Indians...
Wiped out after running...
Grizzly Bear chasing after the runners!
Final stage was drinking "buffalo blood."
Being chased by rattlesnakes!
Drinking the blood...
We had a skillet-toss, but with an old pot...
And here is our winner!
Our last event was the "Yarn-Spinning" competition. Students had to tell the tallest-tale in order to be the winner...
We all had a lot of fun...
you're a fun teacher. The kids must really enjoy your classes. What was the buffalo blood, really?
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! I wish I had been there. Lucky students to have a teacher to orchestrate such an event!
