Once upon a Grimm, a group of kids decided to attend an evening camp. Into the woods, they hunted for ghouls, ran across a cottage with a spinning wheel, then Darth Vader showed up. Talk about a mystery!

In loving memory, Edna Shepherd's birthday is commemorated, honoring her philanthropic land donation, unwavering support, and tireless commitment to serving youth. Our most cherished aspect was watching her witness the growth and development of programming in leadership, education, and recreation.
Edna lived to be 100 years old. The last month of her life (October, 2000), she was in numerous parades.

Step into the Lost Cities, where elves exemplify exceptional intelligence and artistic flair. S. Messenger's book series guides us through a journey of self-discovery, illuminating our talents and fostering fun & creativity as we mapped out this mystical land. Far from baking Keebler cookies, elves play a pivotal role in preserving the world's biodiversity by collecting rare animals, interpreting ancient texts, and searching for precious Gems. What a blast we had…think Hobbit for the 21st century💎💎🦕🦄🦣🦤Did I mention that their is a rogue elf organization trying to derail our mission😳

In the end, our forces triumphed over Fire Lord Ozai in the battles that mattered most…to backtrack slightly…our preparation was thorough, involving a week of intense Fire bending training in Avatar moves and strategic planning. We also worked on movement patterns of the Fire Nation, zipped through the trees and went on the longest hike- ever! This culminated in our decisive victory over the Fire Nation.
