    Eno Hammocks at school

    I teach middle school Art to 6th, 7th and 8th graders. One of the choices for the 7th grade assignment was " You're favorite weekend activity". Here's one of many hammock related pictures that was turned in for the assignment.

    Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!

    I'm starting to think they're adding hammocks to their work because they know I like them and they might get a better grade if ones in the picture.

    At my high school we have a court yard we can eat lunch in with a few trees I really want to hammock at lunch but all the administrators see my straps and say "you have to put those away it's a security threat" I understand that but I wish I could just show them and they would maybe let me explain.

    Sammock,
    Try and start an Outdoor Activities club at school. That's what we did way back when. We partnered with a few of the teachers and instructors who also had those interests. It was one of the best attended and loved clubs in my high school. We did backpacking, canoeing and cycling trips. The movement got so big, we partitioned for canoe and kayaking during gym and build two rock climbing walls. It takes several individuals and help from teachers to get changes. You may also want to make a presentation at the monthly PTA meetings if they have those by you. That way you can demonstrate it to parents and infom them that there isn't anything to worry about.

    That sounds like a great idea there is a pond right outside our schools property and living in North Carolina Along the Neuse river tons of people have kayaks, canoes, or Rafts. Thanks for the suggestion
