            LESSON


            CORE hosted a dig day
            for the students of Vail
            Unified  School  District
            at Mica Mountain High
            School,     which     was

            under       construction
            at the time. Students
            traveled from station to
            station to learn about
            ancient artifacts that
 MESA VERDE HALLOWEEN  can be found on job
            sites  and  the  history
 Throughout the Mesa Verde project, we saw excited students and faculty peering   behind them.

 through slits in the construction fence to get a look at the addition and renovations
 we were building on their campus. When it came time for the faculty to decide what
 they wanted to dress up as for Halloween that year, they all agreed they should be   CURIOSITY
 construction workers. We happily helped them, providing the entire staff with hard
 hats and vests.
