A group called Starbase came to Torrie's school a couple of weeks ago. The program is in place to get young kids interested in math and science. They did a lot of awesome things. They made futuristic cars on a computer program, got to fly real flight simulators and make rockets. They also talked to the kids about healthy lifestyles and the dangers of drugs and alcohol. At the end of the week all of the 5Th grade got to set their rockets off! It was so much fun for me to go watch. I feel very blessed that I am able to go to Torrie's school events and support her!Torrie's Rocket

80 5Th graders all with rockets:

These are the parachutes that were released after take off:
Torrie caught her rocket: I love this picture because she had no idea I was taking the picture but she was so stoked that her rocket went off without a hitch!
