June 2000


We are the 6th grade graduates
(minus 2 that couldn't make the trip)
of the Suttons Bay Montessori School.


We would hike for 8 days, camping along the way.
Our goal being to hike around the peninsula.
Our families would drop off our food and tents at prearranged sites,
so we wouldn't have to lug-it-a-long in the hot summers day.

We would carry day packs with a water bottle(s), swimming suit, snacks etc.
so we could carry the trash we would pick up along the way.
Come on along and see some of what we saw and did . . .
As you check out our adventure, if you have any questions
or would like to see any of the photos bigger, please, email your thoughts/comments
