Ever heard of snow tubing? Snow tubing is like extreme sledding. You are in a tube, and you et plunged down a large hill. It’s is very fun, but also quite dangerous. You should never stand up on your tube, while going down. You should not have more than one person in a rube, and wait until the person before you is out of the way before you go down. Avoiding these risks will keep you safe, sand you’ll still have tons of fun. Down to go snow tubing, you still need to wear the right gear. You will need a heavy coat, socks, snow pants, a long sleeved shirt, boots, gloves, a hat, and a scarf. These will keep you warm. Depending on how step the slope is, you’ll need a helmet as well.

Creating a different vibe for viewers was one of the main goals set by Curt and Travis before a long 700+ day production started. Now this may just be for me, but opening credits is something that can either shy me away from a film or have me glued to it for hours. In the opening for The Fourth Phase, my eyes were glued to the screen, all the graphics, sound effects, music, etc., just made

He asked Anna if she could get snow and dump it next to him so he could continue making more. She was getting handfuls of snow but as soon as she dropped it off Tommy was asking for more so she said "Matt, go home and grab a sled or a shovel so I can get Tommy more snow quicker. Also get some things to build the fort up more." Matt got right to it. He sprinted home as fast as he could he found a wagon, two shovels, rope, a sled, and some more things to build the fort.

After had had more then enough pelting devices they just sat there waiting. After what felt like a four hours was over the eight graders finally started
