Welcome to Session 7!

Resident camp started off fantastic on Sunday night at the Zany campfire. Highlights from the campfire include a skit by Boomer and Dr. Justice about a Knight named Knight who wants to marry the princess and the infamous remix of "I'm a Little Teapot" by the Camp Director.

This week's classes that are offered for cabins are Canoeing, Dance, Arts & Crafts, Archery, Outdoor Living Skills, and Journalism. Each cabin will climb the Alpine Tower and go on a trail ride sometime this week. Poweshiek climbed the Alpine Tower today.

Pottawattamie is currently in the lead for White Tornado. White Tornado is a game between all the cabins on the cleanliness of their cabins. This helps teach campers about the 4 core values of the Y: caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.

Day Camp started today as well. This week's theme is "Christmas in July." They will go caroling, decorate a tree, make ornaments, and possibly meet Santa!

Hand in Hand is out here again this week too! They participated in arena rides, archery, arts & crafts, and swimming today.
