Today, resident camp started their day out playing "Ga-Ga." Ga-Ga is a new game at camp, that is a safer form of dodgeball, because you can only get people out from the knee and below. It has been very popular with the campers... and the staff too! Cabin Young Bear went to the Alpine Tower today to climb, but when it started raining, they had to leave early. Cabin Oneida is winning White Tornado currently. For those who don't know, White Tornado is a competition between the cabins on the cleanliness of their cabins. The reasoning behind this game is to teach campers about the four core values of the YMCA: caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. Tonight, the campers joined together for a rainy, muddy game of Capture the Flag, which the blue team won.

Day campers had a typical rainy day schedule, consisting of indoor activities like arts & crafts and teambuilding games.

Hand in Hand had lots of fun in the mud today. They also roasted smores inside and had a rocking dance party!
