🐻 BearCare has been having a summer full of fun, adventure, and unforgettable memories!
Our Marion BearCare students have been busy exploring and participating in exciting activities around the community. They traveled to the Freeman Community Center for Dino Bingo and a fun dinosaur science experiment using baking soda, food coloring, and vinegar! 🦖🧪
The fun continued with a fishing trip to the Arboretum, where one lucky student caught the first BearCare fish of the summer! 🎣🐟
BearCare students also enjoyed a visit to the Parker Library, where they got creative and built amazing Lego creations. 📚🧱
We love seeing our BearCare students learning, exploring, and making memories all summer long! 🐻
