The Marion Cross Country Team traveled North to the Hanson Hills Recreation Area to compete in The Grayling Cross Country Invitational. Runners fought through sandy terrain with a combination of open blue skies and a beautiful wooded section. The ski slope backdrop behind the finish line proved to be too tempting. AFTER the races were over, this team attacked the hill and conquered it!

The 6th Grade just finished up with their introduction to the 5 Themes of Geography; Movement, Region, Human Environment Interaction, Location, and Place, and are now exploring different types of maps. To illustrate a dilemma cartographers have, taking the surface area of a sphere and projecting it onto a flat surface, students tried to take an orange peel and flatten it out. Some students attempted to arrange small pieces on their desks, others tried to hammer out the edges to make their pieces connect, and a third group carefully removed almost the entire peel in one long piece. Though each method created a different type of distortion, the strategies used by students are similar to the popular world map projections we use today!

Saturday, 9/7, Marion Cross Country welcomed Central Michigan Homeschool Athletics, Farwell, Forest Area, Lansing Waverly, Cadillac, and Manton Schools as they competed in the Marion Steeplechase Race. This race is a bit different than a normal cross country meet; runners competed as teams of 3 and navigated around and over hay bales, logs, and tires throughout the 5k, 2mi, and 1mi fun run courses. Thank you to Lansing Waverly for continuing the tradition of joining us the day before the meet as we put the finishing touches on the course and to share in some running comradery.
