My Project

Every year the 5th and 6th graders from our school go on an annual camping trip. Our tents are getting a little old and some of them are leaking. These new tents will keep students comfortable and dry. We would also use the tents in this project as medical tents for our end-of-the-year Field Day.

This project also includes small backpacks, bug-repellant wristbands, first aid kits, and flashlights so that I could make small camping care packages for each student.

I also included extra sleeping bags and camp chairs for students who might not have them and can't afford to buy their own, charging stations, extra protection tarps, camping tools, and a cooler for all to use.
