Each of the three times we have had our &#8220;fun day,&#8221; we have been blessed with GREAT weather. We have several goals for these fun days:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; let our&nbsp;Chinese summer campers have fun on the lake and in nature, and have one last big special time before they go back home,<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;&nbsp;let our Chinese students here in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/e\/ef\/Roanoke,_Virginia_at_night.jpg\">Roanoke Valley of Virginia<\/a> for the school year have a fun time as they start their new classes, and<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; let the <a href=\"http:\/\/dreyercoaching.com\/\">DreyerCoaching.com<\/a> teachers and their families get together with each other and some of our Asian students.<\/p>\n<p>This year we met on the Saturday of the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Labor_Day\">Labor Day<\/a> weekend, a three-day holiday weekend that always comes in early September in the US. That date was late enough to allow our Chinese students to be back here from their summers at home, but early enough for the water to still be warm enough to swim and play in.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some photos from the day, showing what we did for fun.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-245639\"

looking up into a tree. He looked too, and saw a bald eagle&#8211;the USA national bird! For the past decades, bald eagles were rare and one never saw them at Smith Mountain Lake&#8211;or hardly anywhere else. However, thanks to conservation efforts, their numbers are increasing and several eagles now live at the lake and raise their young there.
