Session 6 Update

Sometimes, camp can be a difficult time for parents. Not knowing what exactly your child is doing at any moment can be quite stressful, but contact between the parents and campers can cause homesickness for the child. However, thanks to this blogging world, we can now update all you parents on what your child is doing everyday.

After the resident campers arrived yesterday afternoon, each cabin got settled in and acquainted with each other. Later, after dinner the campers attended the opening campfire. Since it's called the "Zany Campfire" each camper gets to dress as silly as their hearts desire. There they met all the counselors and staff, watch funny skits, and sing songs.

Today, they had what a typical day will be like. Each camper has the option of signing up for various classes, such as canoeing, archery, drama, arts & crafts, outdoor living skills, journalism, and more! Also throughout the week, each cabin will have the opportunity to climb the Alpine Tower and go a on trail ride. Currently, the resident campers are out at the pool for their evening activity.

Day camp just got started again today! This week's theme is Secret Agent so the kids will be be making "secret decoders" for arts & crafts and will be involved in various activities that will relate.

This week is extra amazing, as we also have the Hand in Hand group out at camp each day! They do all the same activities that the resident campers and day campers do, like archery, horseback riding, canoeing, arts & crafts, and swimming.
