Energy Vampire Busting

Tuesday was the 4th annual Field and Leadership Day for both elementary and secondary students in ISD 719. A wide variety of environmental education classes and activities were held all day for the high school Eco Team, the elementary Junior Naturalists, and the middle school Earthlings at the McColl Environmental Learning Center located in Savage.

The Energy session included playing the interactive video game Charge Up!, trying out the Energy Bike using human power to compare energy use levels, two watt meter stations and going out about testing footcandle readings with a light meter.

Below are a few images captured throughout the fun and educational day with some pretty awesome students. A big thank you goes out to Amy Harker with SEE/Class 5 Energy for her tag-team efforts in helping offer such cool energy activities for these eco-conscious Prior Lake-Savage Area students. And another huge thank you to Cara Rieckenberg, the Environmental Ed. Coordinator for the district who organized this great event. Yay Cara!

Many Energy Vampires were definitely busted that day!
