A school project on Paso Robles turns into a journalist familiarization tour for a Southern California fifth grader.
Last year we were contacted by a 4th grader from Manhattan Beach, named Zane Thormodsgaard, looking for information for a report on Paso Robles. We sent him some information on the area, he got an A on his report and we struck up a relationship with him and his family along the way.
We wanted Zane to experience first-hand all of the things he wrote about in his report, so we invited him back as a guest journalist to cover a summer family adventure in Paso Robles.
He arrived on June 22nd and spent the weekend exploring some of the the kid-friendly attractions in the area. He will be sharing his impressions of each experience on our our blog. Here is Zane's first installment:
June 22, 2013
I just visited the amazing Ravine Water Park in Paso Robles, California.
The park was so much fun and family-friendly! A kid named Kyle even let me cut him in the line so I could race down the tube with my brother. The Ravine Water Park is a very exciting and welcoming place.
My favorite ride was “The Toilet Bowl.” What does the ride do, you might ask? Well, it is a crazy-cool ride with a cone-shaped drop at the end. I whizzed down the toilet bowl (no pun intended) as my heart raced out of my chest! Unfortunately, my head kept bumping on the slide since I didn’t listen to much of the instructions because I was so excited. I recommend you follow the lifeguard’s directions to tuck your chin as you ride.
I hope you have as much fun as I did when you visit the Ravine Water Park.
