A VIEW FROM THE TOP OF THE WEEK!! :)

Dear All,






Yesterday and today we continued our quest for 'fun and fitness'.  And, yesterday not even a downpour or two could stop us!  Although we spent the afternoon indoors, we still managed to play soccer, have three-legged races, shoot a few bullseye and prepare an awesome craft or two.  We even tried out the land skis in the morning at the Y, and build an very tall structure out of straws-and-connectors.   






Today, our day consisted of learning lacrosse skills and playing a game or two of lacrosse, having 'egg on a spoon' team challenges, fine tuning our archery skills and making duct-tape wallets, purses, and other accessories.  It was quite cold in the morning so we built a campfire to keep us warm.






In the afternoon then we had a tug-of-war tournament.  All teams put maximum effort into the competition.  We even saw the counselors compete as a team - gloriously, I might add - being beaten only by Lefty's group which won the tournament!  Teddy thinks that there might have been a rule violation - apparently Dyno and, earlier, Stix' shoes might have been made slippery by a few campers causing these counselors to fall during the competition - so there might be a rematch during the campfire tomorrow evening.  Stay tuned for the final 'call' on that one! :)






And so we are looking forward to our second sleepover of the season.  Permission forms and pot-luck sign-up sheets are available on the sign-in/out tables.  We also have maps available as well. 






Thank you so much for your continued support of our day camp.  See you tomorrow at the campfire! :)
