            - June 5, 2009 While the Washington School fifth graders were 
            planting flowers at city Hall Tuesday, Mrs. Maki and Mrs. Mickelson 
            were taking their second grade student to the Bluff Valley Park. The 
            kids were excited as the school year was nearing an end! Many local students have been enjoying field trips this past week 
            as the school year was ending. In Bessemer the students from the 
            Washington School were no exception. Gail Maki and Diana Mickelson 
            brought their second graders to Bluffview Park where the kids had a 
            great time as all kids do on trip to the park. Tether Ball, 
            merry-go-rounds and Jungle Gyms are still the order of the day, even 
            in this 21st Century hi-tech world. It's interesting to think that 
            we all enjoyed the very same amusements when we were in second 
            grade. It's even more interesting that children can still have a 
            great time when not in front of a video screen of any kind.
