Today we are enjoying the glorious sunshine at Camp Westwind!
Alpine have been very lucky with the weather and are currently hiking up to Cascade Head. The view will be amazing, pictures will follow tomorrow of their adventure.
So, last night everyone went on their overnight, to spend a night under the stars making smores and playing games outside (aswell as burying several campers in the sand!). It really was quite the expedition, Sherwood and Highlands ventured to Pirates Cove! A brilliant spot on the beach, they had hotdogs for dinner and were playing a game of shoulder tag when disaster struck! A Racoon was spotted trying to get near their belongings...the staff decided to deter the racoon by making loud noises, eventually this seemed to work! However the weather took a turn for the worst and the wind picked up significantly...it was decided to change spots! Both units moved to nearer camp, still staying outside, and enjoyed sleeping out in the wilderness, being away from racoons and wind!
Alpine went to the beautiful Estuary Spot! They ate up chicken tortillas and played a variety of games. Everything went well on their overnight and they were all excited for their hike this afternoon!
The Teen Ads are currently enjoying their two night overnight, last night they stayed at firebreak and have been hiking this afternoon! They will end up at the Estuary Spot and develop their survival skills by making their own fires, and cooking their own food!
Finally, our Teen Leads 2s have been shadowing counselors and leading value sessions, two of them said how fun it has been, even though it was tiring they are having a great time!
That is all for today, enjoy the pictures of the boys being buried and the Teen Leads assisting in art palace!
