Students from Holy Redeemer Middle School in Montrose recently attended AstroCamp in Idyllwild to experience three days of science labs and outdoor fun. This is the first time the school has participated in the AstroCamp program and students and teachers enjoyed the outdoor classroom experience despite chilly temperatures. A snow flurry brought a bit of winter to the outing.
