Day 2 and the SunSmart Team

Today we had a really good day. At snack the medical students from the dermatology department came by to do a skit on sun protection. We learned to slip on a shirt, slap on a hat, slop on some sunscreen and wrap on some sun glasses.

From left to right are: Vialla Hartfield-Mendez (Office of University Community Partnerships at Emory), Seema Kini, Lauren Henricksen (OUCP), Molly Spratt, and Gerardo Marrazzo (Dermatology Medical Students).

They then gave us these bracelets that they made with UV sensitive beads that turn colors in the sun. Wow, they are great.

Today we also started our learning strategies and study skills classes and had our first specials. People got to sign up for specials yesterday and they were art class, dance, jewelry making, African drumming, and cooking. We signed up at lunch today for tomorrow's specials.

Everyone is loving the pool and all the activities! Oh, and by the way, we were featured on the main home page of Emory University so if you want to check it out, you can see the rotating pictures at http://www.emory.edu/ There are 2 at the top and one at the bottom left corner.

See you tomorrow!
