This was the first day of the second
week session at STEPS. The picture above shows Holly, the red team's
counsler, attempting to crawl through the "spider web". Ha ha ha, we
never knew she had that much hair! If you are wondering, Holly did
manage to crawl through one of the bottom holes, but it wasn't this
try! In this challenge, you must get your team through every hole in
the "spider web" without going through the same hole twice! Oh, one
more thing, you can't touch the web or you must go back to your side.
Talk about a challenge!

This is yet another picture of the
ropes course, with Samantha Kopecky climbing to the top of a very high
rock wall! If you're wondering, she made it all the way to the top! Go
Sam!

On the second day of STEPS, the red team
attended physics, where we learned a ton about air and how it effects
us. We learned about the four different forces that assist in a
planes flight. The forces are thrust, drag, air lift, and gravity. We
also learned that nitrogen is the most abondent gas in the atmosphere,
and even that for every square inch of anything, there is 14.7 pounds
being pushed on it from pressure.

In packaging (which came right after
physics) we made corigated containers, also known as cardboard boxes,
but don't call them cardboard in front of Ken! We got do decorate
them using glitter, foam letters, markers, and glue. Then after that,
we used shrink wrap to package gel pens and post-it notes together, and
we got to keep them! After that, ken dropped a glass to show us how it
breaks and where most pressure is applied!

This in sign-in day, and I'm sure that
everybody was a little nervous about this day! C.C. is picking out a
blue shirt for someone on the blue team, while a few other girls are
shown filling in their names with the hommade stencils.
