The campers are in bed and I can say our first day with them was a success. At camper pickup it was great to see all the returning campers and to see them all quickly start to mingle before getting on the bus. When we arrived at camp we of course got rain! We had some distant thunder but luckily it ended in time for us to go swimming. It was a little chilly out so some of the campers only swam half the time then had a hot shower to warm up. After swimming we had dinner then set SMART goals in Social Skills. The campers all made really great goals (eg. To make friends with everyone at camp) and many of the returning campers remembered the acronym for goal setting. After social skills we did a big campwide game of Capture the Flag. We made it a little harder this camp with larger boundaries and the game went on for an hour. I am happy to say that my team (the Pinny team) found the flag and won the game. J After that we let the campers mingle and catch up on there past year.
Tomorrow we are going to Camp Horizon to do the giant swing, low ropes course and rock climbing wall.
