A Visit to the Pumpkin Patch!



Thanks to a generous donor affiliated with SDRT as well as six SDRT daytime volunteers, the entire kindergarten and transitional kindergarten at Ibarra got to go to Oma's Pumpkin Patch and Dairy this past week! 

The TK and kindergarten teachers at Ibarra Elementary have never taken a field trip to a pumpkin patch in the past thirteen years of Ibarra's existence, though it is something they have always wanted to do. With limited funding sources and costly admission prices, it wasn't a reality. This year, we had a donor change that. With his donation, SDRT was able to help organize and pay for this field trip (and one more in December!).

The kids (and adults!) had old-fashioned fun as they 'sledded' on the cotton seed hill, roped bulls, pet goats, rode pedal carts, ran through a hay maze and even took home their own miniature pumpkin! It was a day of memory making and a chance to just be a kid. Our SDRT students particularly enjoyed themselves and learned about just how wonderful a dairy farm can smell! Thank you SDRT daytime volunteers for helping keep track of all of the 4 and 5-year olds!
