Joy planned Olympic events this year around the Olympics and immediately following to keep the spirit alive. She got the kids together with Kim and her kids for some events such as straw balancing relays and egg shotputs among other things. Later, she led a literature analysis course for the CC kids identifying five main elements of fiction. After successful completion of the course the kids took part in Olympic events such as archery with a crossbow, frisbee toss, javelin throw, long jump, volleyball, water balloon toss, and hurdles.
