Only at Sand Creek - a Saturday Two-Fer and a Rescue!

Due to today's unpredictable weather, I ended up working a split shift at Sand Creek.  Hence, a two-fer! 

THE SWIM TEAM
 We had a swim team with twenty students come from Hopkins this morning and they didn't care that it was going to be wet!  That's just something they're used to!  God was good.  The rain stopped as they pulled in and we had a blast.  Tim and I did a couple of activities up on top, then took them down the hill.  I had just a pleasant enjoyable time team building with them on the course.  Tim, unfortunately, did not.

THE HIGH ROPES/ZIPS
Duane actually tried to cancel our 3:15 and 4:30 groups today, but they both wanted to come.  Since it was only four customers and it stopped raining, we had a lovely afternoon with a few peeks of sun.

THE RESCUE
We caution people all the time about zipping with their phones.  If the phone is dropped, we have no way of rescuing it.  However, we, as staff, are notorious for zipping with our phones.  It's a rare day that I don't have mine.

This afternoon, I was working with the owner, Duane, and he had just zipped down to Platform 2.  One of our clients said, ""Did you guys see something black fall out of his pocket?"  None of us had, but when we arrived at Platform Two and checked with Duane, sure enough, his phone had fallen out.  

Said client had seen specifically where Duane's phone had fallen.  Duane was able to climb right down the hill and rescue it before I was even able to call him so he could "hear" where it was at!
