Dear Counselor at Blackwater Outdoor Experiences,
I had so much fun when I was with you Friday (on the ropes course).  You were so energetic and you made everyone in the group have fun.  I liked when we were doing things as a team.  The first thing I liked about you was that you were patient with us.  When we didn’t work as a team right away you just told us to work hard to do things as a team.  I also liked the thing we did when we had to get the ring off of the (giant) finger.  That was exciting because we really didn’t know what to do, then we had to work as a team and we got the ring off of the finger.  Overall I had a good time with you.
Sincerely,
Talisha

Dear Blackwater Outdoor Experiences,
I personally enjoyed the whole field trip to the Blackwater Ropes Course.  You showed me that I don’t have to be a kid just to have fun.  Also all of the activities were fun and amusing.  Such as the giant spider web activity, when we all had to use teamwork to get through.  My favorite activity was to get the ring off the (giant) finger because I played an important role (in completing the activity).  Overall I had a spectacular time and thank you for a good time.
Sincerely,
Hunter

Dear Counselor at Blackwater Outdoor Experiences,
Three reasons why I enjoyed the field trip to Blackwater Ropes Course was because it was fun.  My second was because I met new people in my group.  My last reason was because me and my team worked together to complete different obstacles.  I want to thank you for helping me and my team.   You were a great counselor.
Yours truly,
Gabby

Dear Counselor at Blackwater Outdoor Experiences,
On the field trip I really enjoyed your enthusiasm.  Your enthusiasm made every little game and even the walk on the trail fun.  I really liked the rope swing.  It showed me how to use teamwork and encouragement to get everyone across the line.  But I really enjoyed you guys because you guys came in with a great attitude which made the day very exciting.  Thank you.
Sincerely,
Tiara

Dear Counselor at Blackwater Outdoor Experiences,
I am just writing to thank you for leading me through a wonderful day at the Blackwater Ropes Course.  I want to say that I really enjoyed myself because of the games we played.  I liked the games because they really challenged my mind.  I also enjoyed just being outside in nature because it was different from being in school all day.  Last but not least I enjoyed the field trip because you were my instructor.  You really made it exciting and fun to be there….  I hope I get to come back again sometime soon.
Sincerely,
Destiny

Dear Counselor at Blackwater Outdoor Experiences,
I enjoyed so many things on the field trip including the games, the teamwork, and the group I was working with.  I enjoyed the activities because they allowed us to use our brains and strategize on how to perform them.  I especially enjoyed the teamwork because it allowed us to think as a group on how we should complete the tasks, and what we could’ve done better.  I enjoyed being in the group I was working with because I got to interact with new people and make new friends in the few hours we were there.
Thank you so much,
Meagan

Dear Counselor at Blackwater Outdoor Experiences,
The field trip was fun because we did a lot of activities.  We swung on a rope.  I didn’t get to the platform but I had fun trying.  Then we were blindfolded and were walking up hills and rocks.  My favorite part of the field trip was when we were throwing the ball and keeping it in the air for 61 hits.  It was funny when we were trying to untangle ourselves.  Thank you for the interesting experience.
Sincerely,
