Senior fall field trip highlights

After three long years of work in high school, the seniors were rewarded with a fall field trip to Stone Mountain Park while the underclassmen took the PSAT. There were plenty of exciting activities reserved exclusively for the Creekview students.

Entering the park, many of our students took on the challenge of the Sky Hike ropes course in the Crossroads section of the park. The ability to balance was tested on three levels of difficulty of tight ropes, swinging ropes, planks, and rope bridges. Other entertainment on the trip included a mini golf tournament, touring the antebellum plantation, taking a hike to the top of the mountain, or playing Frisbee on the spacious memorial field.

Senior field trip coordinator Mrs. Dicks said, “We chose Stone Mountain Park for the field trip because the park provided a variety of activities for the seniors to participate in. I also felt like the trip was a huge success because the weather was gorgeous and everyone had a great time.”
The teens also had the chance to enjoy a cookout in the park’s pavilion. After eating, they had a chance to have fun by dancing to the D.J.’s music, participating in limbo, hula hooping, sack racing, or tossing water balloons in various contests.

“I had a great time participating in the limbo, cupid shuffle, and sack race at the pavilion. The games helped to contribute to a fun, care-free day. It was a pleasant escape from the overwhelming stress that our final year of high school withholds,” said student Jill T.

Over all, the trip seemed to be a success and gave everyone a nice day off.
