Pumpkin Patch Field Trip offered!
PUMPKIN PATCH FIELD TRIP/CORN MAZE/HAY RIDE + MORE
WHERE: MADRAC FARMS, 580 Ralph Rahn Rd., RINCON, GA.
WHEN: OCTOBER 16
TIME: 11:00 A.M Sharp
DETAILS: $5.00 PER STUDENT/ADULTS
LUNCH: I’m recommending a sack lunch. They do offer a lunch package, but it must be ordered ahead of time, which will complicate things. You’re welcome to call and order it individually, just tell them you’re with CBCCA homeschooling group.
SIGN -UP: Please email coxfamsc@gmail.com with number of students and adults. Please pay by October 8, call Charles Cox for more information @ 476-6868. Thank you.
Please read the following:
Hay ride—Take a class trip through the deep Georgia Woods and around the corn maze. Takes about 10-15 minutes. Classes will try to be loaded together, depending on size.
Corn maze—About 5 acres this year, not to big, but not to small. We recommend breaking up into groups of 5 and trying to see who can make it through the maze the quickest. Takes about 20 minutes.
Hay Play—There’s nothing more enjoyable for a child than playing around in the hay! Please plan on your children getting dirty.
Animal Feeding— A great learning opportunity for those kids that have never seen a goat, pig, or chicken, except on television. Animal feed is included for each child on fieldtrips. A 5 minute walk from the entrance.
Trip through pumpkin patch—We grow our own, and it’s exciting to see little faces when they realize pumpkins grow from a vine. Children will pick up their pie pumpkin that is included in their visit as they exit the farm, not in the pumpkin patch. (The pie pumpkins don’t grow in South Georgia.) A 5-minute walk from the entrance.
Big Slide—New this year is our big slide. Every child will want to take a ride down the 13-foot slide on a potato sack.
Bouncy house— New this year, a bouncy house is included with all admission.
Coupon for FREE visit for each child—Each child participating in a field trip will receive a coupon to come back to the pumpkin patch for FREE during the 2014 season.
Child sized pumpkin (for children only) – Children only will receive a small pumpkin to take home with them. This pumpkin will be picked up at the Entrance/Exit area, not picked from the pumpkin patch. It makes it much easier so parents and teachers aren’t keeping track of 25 different pumpkins during your visit.
Recommendations: We recommend breaking up into class sizes or even groups of 10 when doing a field trip. A great rotation is Corn Maze, Hay ride, Pumpkin Patch, Animal Feeding, Lunch (if dining with us), Hay Play/Bouncy House/Slide. There will NOT be a Farm employee with you to guide your visit, so it is up to teachers/parents to get your group through the farm. We will have employees stationed at all areas of the farm to answer any questions and to assist you and your staff in any way we can.
Depending on your group size, your visit can vary from 1.5 to 2.5 hours. We recommend bringing and wearing your school ID badges while at the farm and that everyone wears closed-toed shoes.

Marine Master Sgt. George Albert Jackson will Posthumously Receive the Congressional Gold Medal on Thursday, Oct. 2 at Helena Place Senior Living
Retired Marine Master Sgt. George Albert Jackson will posthumously receive the Congressional Gold Medal on Thursday, Oct. 2, at 11 a.m. at Helena Place Senior Living in Port Royal. His widow, Ella J. Jackson, will accept the award for her late husband. The late Master Sgt. Jackson is receiving the honor for being a Montford Point Marine. The Montford Point Marines were among the first African Americans in the United States Marine Corps who overcame racial prejudice to serve in WWII, Korea and Vietnam, paving the way for full racial integration of the U.S. Marine Corps. He volunteered to enter the Marine Corps on June 22, 1942.
In 1942, Montford Point Camp was established as the World War II recruit training site for all African American Marines. At its height, approximately 20,000 Marines walked through the camp’s gate to attend recruit training. It wasn’t until 1949 that President Harry Truman issued executive order 9981, which effectively ended segregation in the military. Master Sgt. Jackson retired on March 31, 1969. Following his service, Master Sgt. Jackson became a founding member of the Montford Point Marine Association, Inc., Beaufort chapter and sat as vice president in 1973. The Montford Point Marine Association, Inc., a non-profit veteran organization, was founded in 1965 to memorialize the first African Americans to serve in the United States Marine Corps.
The Congressional Gold Medal is the nation’s highest civilian honor. It is awarded to persons who have performed achievements that have had an impact on American history that is likely to be recognized as a major achievement in the recipient’s field long after the achievement. It is not to be confused with the Medal of Honor, which is the nation’s highest military honor.
The late retired Master Sgt. Jackson served in the U.S. Army prior to joining the Marine Corps. He served in WWII, the Korean War and Vietnam. A native of Long Island, NY, he died on July 18, 1987 and is interred at Beaufort National Cemetery. In addition to his widow Ella, age 93, several other family members and members of the Montford Point Marine Association, Inc. will attend the ceremony.
A buffet luncheon will follow the award presentation at Helena Place Senior Living, 1624 Paris Ave., Port Royal, SC 29935. The public is invited to attend this prestigious awards ceremony and reception. Please call (843) 252-3001 or e-mail rewing@enlivant.com with questions.

PT Kids Life help needed!
Hey KidsLife Friends,
Just wondering if anyone is interested in helping with the first graders during FitKidz from 11:00-12:15 at Community Bible Church on Wednesdays during our scheduled Woman’s Life meetings.
We had such a large crowd of children last time that I need to split the Kindergarten/1st graders. I know some Moms like to help for part of the morning and so I thought I would see if there is anyone who is interested in this position. I already have a teacher for the first part of morning (9:45-11:00). Feel free to call me or email.
Thanks,
Evelyn Owens
