quarry quest

A few  weeks ago we took our kids to Quarry Quest  - it is a fun family event/fundraiser held at Michels Materials limestone quarry near our home.

The kids get to tour the quarry, ride on the excavation machinery, and participate in a bunch of hands-on activities.

The crowd was a little insane, but the kids had a good time -

here are a few pics

even ty got in on the fun - the adults got to dig for tokens in the sand - if you found the right tokens you won prizes

come giant hula hooping

fun day!
