    WEEK 1-3

    Week 1    : The kids met with their instructor, Eddie Moritz, at the Escanaba Middle School in Scott Dykema’s classroom, aka, the art room.  For their community project they will be focusing on painting the ceiling tiles at Bobaloons.  They enjoyed their kickoff snack while they brainstormed ideas to present to Mark Ammel, Bobaloon’s proprietor.
