Firefighter Challenge with Chris Carillo & Chief Joe Lenahan

Wooooahhhh what a totally unforgettable day! We had the most exciting day at the firehouse!!! Mr Chris Carillo & Chief Joe Lenahan prepared such an awesome interactive firefighter challenge for us! They set up an obstacle coarse for us and we had real hands-on training! They also had the EMS department inside the ambulance so we could have water and get our heart rate+blood pressure checked... we also got to spray the hose and ride in the 100ft ladder! We checked out the inside of the firetrucks and saw all the equipment they use... and at the end of the day we received Junior Firefighter Certificates! What a totally awesome experience and we are so grateful for all that you do for your community!!!! Beyond a special thank you to the Montauk Fire Department --you are true heroes and we admire you so much-- thanks for all you do!!!!

Handpainting an 18' Mural with Aubrey Roemer

Today we painted with our art kid, Aubrey Roemer, and started our 18 foot mural to hang on the outside of our Camp SoulGrow Studio. We learned color theory, perspective, and interpretation of form. Our mural is a field of sunflowers, under a Montauk sunset... stay tuned for the final product!! :)
