Hawley Sixth Graders Invade Itasca!

The boys enjoyed their “guy time” at the Mississippi Headwaters as a few brave souls took a quick swim in Lake Itasca.

The 6th grade students at Hawley Elementary School continued another one of their fun annual traditions.  On Wednesday, September 19, bus drivers Leighton Grani and Red Odegaard hauled 80+ students and faculty eastward and northward through the twists and turns of rural Clay, Becker, Hubbard, and Clearwater Counties to one of Minnesota’s finest gems: Itasca State Park!
