Outdoor Explorers Goes Virtual
June 9, 2020
During the Spring & Fall Candlelight Ranch hosts Outdoor Explorers, an outdoor adventure program serving special needs adolescents through Round Rock ISD. This Spring, we made a few adaptations to continue serving our adventurous students and have transferred our group online! Socialization in a world of social distancing, especially for our community members with special needs, has become increasingly difficult. Our weekly gathering of classmates provides an opportunity to not only learn something new about nature but to catch up with pals and see friendly faces from across town.
Our explorers have made crafts from recycled materials, played games, cooked meals, learned about animals, got moving with yoga and most importantly laughed and smiled together! Candlelight Ranch looks forward to continuing this group in summer and is greatly looking forward to getting back together, in person this Fall.
