Day 1 - Wednesday, May 20, 2026
Today, the class arrived at Hurricane Island! The first thing we did was set up our cabins and yurts, and then we went over some expectations for the island! Once we got settled on the island, we ate a delicious dinner of chicken pot pie and berry cobbler for dessert. Afterwards, we went on a beautiful hike and saw the sunset! We then finished our day with a very competitive game of Exploding Kittens and went right to sleep. (We were very tired!)
