Today was such a great day!

A few students and I went to the Penn Valley Gymkhana today! Everyone did a great job and hit some personal bests!

Congratulations Reagan on moving up from leadline and accomplishing a goal she wanted to make by the end of summer and that was being able to compete by herself! And she DID IT!

My favorite part about this is seeing our students grow and learn but most importantly seeing them make these memories the same I did when I was their age! My absolute favorite childhood memories 🫶🏻

Thankful I get to be apart of some of theirs!
