It’s a colon blast!
Students tour giant model of human organ
DIXON – Some two dozen eighth-graders crawled on their hands and knees through an oversized model of a colon Tuesday morning at KSB Hospital.
Even the principal and health teacher explored the 40-foot-long, 4-foot-tall model, called Coco the Colossal Colon, on display this week at Commerce Towers, next door to the hospital.
The students took pictures with their cellphones of each other, crawling through the pinkish-reddish tunnel and popping through cutouts in the wall of the model.
