Arrrrrrrghhhhh! Ahoyyyyyyyyy!!!
This morning we were invaded by pirates! Captain Mus and Captain Tashe declared that today camp would partake in a BOOTY BATTLE!!!!! We were given the challenge to help Captain Mus and Captain Tashe search and steal back the treasure. Mus and Tashe were once fellow sailors, but ever since Mus spent all their money on a mustache comb the pair sailed on Columbia Lake separately and Tashe took their treasure.
Breakfast continued as normal with blueberry bread and cereal. We had our morning classes and and then headed up for lasagna! One of everyone favorite meals was a success. We had butterscotch pudding for lunch and headed to rest hour to rest up for the booty battle.
After rest hour everyone went in the lake for general swim and sailors were able to enjoy a windy lake for 4th period. Afterward everyone prepared at flagpole for the treasure battle. Everyone got a mustache and pirate themed temporary tattoos. Then campers split up to join either Captain Mus, or Captain Tashe and then search around camp for clues. Each clue had a challenge with it such as untying a human knot or lining up in alphabetical order without talking. The last clue led to the A-field. Campers commenced in a dodge ball battle while also trying to collect pieces of “booty” in hopes to defeat Team Mus or Team Tashe.
Campers then discovered that it was Captain Beard who took the treasure from Mus and Tashe. He revealed himself at the end of the battle and the campers stole the treasure back from him. The boys enjoyed chips and candy from the treasure chest. And then headed off to supper!
We had chicken patties and apple crumble for supper and dessert. We ended the day with board games, songs and vespers since a storm rolled in during the evening. Campers loved their pirate adventure filled day and went to sleep ready for bed!
With love from Wamah,
