Glenview - Day 4

Yesterday the Glenview students had time to get up close and personal with the animals they collected throughout the week.  They also did an art exploration of the aquarium and toured the historic Van Horne Estate on Ministers Island.  In the evening the students competed in the Almost Amazing Marine Race around St. Andrews.  Congrats team 3 on the win!
