Ms. Borst's classroom group found an opening on the sledding hill for a few minutes of snow tubing. The snow storm from the previous day was enough to make sledding possible for those scheduled to use it. Unfortunately, the sledding conditions are expected to be a one-day wonder (just on Tuesday).

The sun had come out and the snow had begun to melt slightly by the time the Investigators went sledding on Tuesday. They had a blast. We need more snow so that everyone can have a chance to sled.
