Larsen Elemetary 5th graders got the chance to go visit Olymipc Park in Park City this week.  They had fun learning more about when the Olympics came to Utah in 2002.  The students learned about many of the athletes that competed in the 2002 Winter Olympics and also the many different sports that were a part of it.  Some 5th graders got to test out the bobsled and other equipment.  Way to go 5th Graders!

Submitted by teresa.beebe on

Mountain Man Scott Sorensen made a visit to Larsen 4th graders.  He told some tall tales and all about his adventures as a mountain man.  He showed us all the different  animal calls he uses in the wild.  The students also got to see all of the different animal furs and skins.  Some students even got to wear them!  It was an amazing experience to see how a real mountain man lives!  Thanks Mr. Sorensen for teaching us some really neat stuff!
