St. Patrick sixth graders participate in overnight retreat ...

Ever year the sixth grade class at St. Patrick School in Waukon (pictured above) has the opportunity to participate in an overnight retreat at Village Creek Bible Camp, rural Lansing. The students take part in many team-building activities, along with different challenge courses. Some of the activities at this year's retreat included tree climbing, zip-lining and lake fun. The students learned about the importance of teamwork throughout the retreat, while forming close bonds with each other that will last for many years. Submitted photo.
