Week 3 In Full Swing - And, Keeping it 'Cool'! :)

Dear All,

We hope your campers and you are enjoying the week with us at Camp Heidelberg. 

Both of our streams are in full swing.  The 'builder's are working on a Camp Heidelberg sign, and the 'tri-sports' campers have been 'tri-ing' a number of different, challenging events - weather permitting. 

We have been drinking a lot of water at the camp, and have been putting sunscreen on as well.  We are encouraging our campers to drink water as often as possible.  We will also be having regularly scheduled water breaks as well.  In addition, we will be spending the majority of our time in the shade and inside, which includes an air conditioned building. 

Tomorrow, Thursday, we will be having a campfire and a sleepover - weather permitting.  The permission forms and the sleepover letter which has a list of items campers should bring to the sleepover can be picked up at the sign-in/out table. 

Please note that on Thursday afternoon, we will be bussing the campers back to their Ys for the afternoon swim, and we ask parents to drive them back out to the camp.  Gate opens at 7:30 and the campfire starts at 8:00pm. We have maps and directions for you to get to the camp.  They too are available at the sign-in/out table.

Friday's lunch will be a pot-luck lunch - regardless if campers slept over or not. We will be roasting hot dogs on Friday so we ask that you send a small item - a desert, salad, or a drink - with your camper.  The bottom of the sleepover letter has a small sign-up sheet attached to it.  Please fill it out and leave it with us so that we have an idea as to what type of food items we will be receiving.

Thank you so much for your continuous support of our camp.  Hope to see you at the campfire.

Teddy and the Counsellors :)
