Taste of Camping

The first days of camp have been going great! When the campers arrived on Friday afternoon we had hotdogs and macaroni for lunch. Afterwards we took a tour of the camp and played some ice breakers and parachute games to get to know everybody. It was a beautiful day out so we spent most of the day out on the field enjoying the sun. For dinner we had ham, scalloped potaotes and veggies with ice cream for dessert, a lot of the campers enjoyed dinner so much they even went up for second helpings!

The campwide game last night was fool's gold. The campers had to run around and find gold that some crazy pirates from the future had hidden around the camp. The crazy pirates were running around trying to find the campers and when they ran into them they had to try and make them laugh. If the campers laughed they had to give up a peice of their gold to the pirates. The campers loved the game so much they've been asking if we can play again tonight. After the campwide game we all headed to the ampitheatre before bed.

It's a little bit colder outside this morning but we still went for the goldeye hike around the lake. Our counselors in training led the hike and we stopped halfway to play camaflouge in the forest. After the hike we had a water relay race on the dock and the campers got to pour their buckets of water all over thunderbird afterwards!

We're headed to the dining hall for lunch now and then we're going to play some games with the ropes staff.
