Maggie Blankenship of Fairy Stone State Park explains the different types of fairystones found in the park.
Campers paint a new mural that will be displayed at DeHart Park. Special thanks to the volunteers from Bull Mountain Arts for this project.

Forty-four kids, ages 5 through 12, recently took part in the 13th annual Kids on the Move day camp sponsored by the Patrick County Extension office.

Children spent their mornings being active as well as taking part in craft and nature classes. Breakfast and lunch were provided daily through the USDA Summer Meals program in conjunction with Patrick County Public Schools. Afternoons were spent swimming and playing in the pool at DeHart Park.

On Tuesday morning, campers took a field trip to Fairy Stone State Park where they searched for different types of fairystones and got to grill hot dogs over a campfire.

On Thursday, campers went to Lowes Foods to learn about different food groups and try some new foods.

On Friday, despite rainy weather, campers were able to visit the Stuart Farmers’ Market, where they bought fresh local produce and other goodies. Campers were assisted by Investigator Tyler Wilson of the Patrick County Sheriff’s Department.

This camp would not be possible without the tremendous support from adult and teen volunteers, instructors and community members who willingly donate their time to help these children. The Extension office is so appreciative of everyone who was involved in this year’s camp.

For more information about Kids on the Move, please contact Terri Alt, Family and Consumer Sciences Agent at the Extension Office at (276) 694-3341.
