Happy 4th of July!
Today was a beautiful bright and sunny day and campers enjoyed every bit of it! We had English muffins for breakfast and then got to our daily cabin clean up. Afterwards for classes swimming enjoyed a warm lake and boating had awesome weather for practicing their rowing and paddling skills. Arts and crafts, as always, was busy and campers had fun making new crafts to take home.
For dinner today we had beef barbecue sandwiches, similar to Sloppy Joe’s which were so delicious. After rest hour campers had a blast in the water as the day got hotter. For fourth period the wind was slower so sailors got to practice their capsizing skills.
Campers took advantage of some new activities being offered for activity period. There was juggling, jumping off the tower, and playing new card games. Later we had chicken enchiladas for supper which was a new meal and a big hit! We ended supper to get ready for evening program, Pirates!!
Campers dressed in all black and long pants and searched for the other team’s treasure while trying to engage in “gun battles”. Each camper was given a little sac of flour and ran around trying to get each others guns. A camper favorite game finished up at the flag poll where we offered sundaes for dessert. A 4th of July special treat!! We sang so many songs, had vespers and were able to catch some of the fireworks before everyone headed off to bed.
See you in the morning!
With love from Wamah,
