Next up for Body Walk was a trip to Cleveland MS, home of the fighting okra. We set up at Parks Elementary. Here we saw K-Fifth grade from seven schools. Students from Parks, Nailor, Bell, Pearman, HCC, PDS, and Bayou enjoyed learning how to be smart from the inside out.
Being in one location for a week takes a lot of help and coordination. Teacher assistants from each school volunteered in a few stations. College students from Delta State University helped set up/take down, and they worked in a stations. The BW school coordinator was Lynn Hubbard. We also had a lot of help from other Extension agents. Laura Giaccaglia booked Body Walk for her county and she worked tirelessly each day. Kristi Harrison of Bolivar, Jennifer Russell of Leflore, Ann Twiner of Sunflower, Shanna Taylor of Coahoma, Regina Boykin of Humphrys, Duan Walker Regional Broadband Coordinator, Willie Watkins of Sunflower, and Tamara Robinson of Coahoma all helped make Body Walk a success.
From the Brain
to the Path Way of Life
and everything in between
the students LOVED it.
