Crazy Shoes Day

Today (Monday) was the last full day of camp! We started off the morning with French toast for breakfast! We did flag raising, and cleanup before we headed off for 2 sessions! Some of the campers were at high ropes challenge course, shooting sports (muzzle loading) at this time also! We had our group session, and then optional session! We had soap making, line dancing, capture the flag, zip line, adle-adle (a type of safe javelin game), ga-ga ball, duct tape crafts, marshmallow guns, basketball, climbing wall and water polo.

After an exciting morning we had tacos for lunch and heard some inspiring words about friendship and making friends at camp! After a relaxing hour of rest and relaxation, we were refreshed and ready for two more sessions! We had fishing, line dancing, zip line, sandpaper tote bags, ultimate frisbee, canoeing, climbing wall, flying things, tie dye, and adle-adle. 

We had free time and started preparing for the war game! We had a beef and noodles for dinner, and sang “roll me over the ocean” with the permanent staff. After dinner began the war game. It is a giant game of capture the flag with two teams, green and yellow! Those that didn’t want to play the war game could earn points by playing board games for points! The war game was cut a little short because it started to pour down rain! We headed back to our cabins and got cleaned up for the final night activities! Our counselors gave us all certificates with “superlatives” for each and every one of us! The rain didn’t let up – so it ruined the counselors plans to have mini campfires and make smores. They were able to set up the movie “Horton hears a Who” in the dining hall, with board games and card games! The counselors also had the recreation hall set up for lots of line dancing with glow-sticks. The adult staff figured out how to make our smores in the oven and we had a snack! The last year counselors and campers got to stay up an extra hour for dancing while the rest of the campers headed back to clean up and settle in for the night!
