Session 1 Day 2, 2012!

Today was a great start to the first session of the summer. We had a bit of rain, but thankfully it only lasted about 20 minutes. After some cabin time, we gathered in the lodge to find out which interest groups the campers would be participating in. This weeks choices were: Highway Robbery/Highway Friendship with Bandit and Alma, What Not to Wear: Bat Cave Style with Yachats and Tulip, Egg Drop with Otter and Peep, How to be a Spy with Lilo and Trex, and finally Left Behind! Outdoor Survival with Blinker and Toast. From the conversations at lunch, everyone enjoyed their interest groups. After lunch there was quiet cabin time, followed by cabin activity time. Sherwood went kayaking and also spent some time on the archery range. Highlands did some team building on the challenge course, did candle making and tie-dye in the art palace, followed by some time in the Cove where we have our camp store. Alpine played soccer and did archery today at the barn, and enjoyed time in the cove with store time, and also a fondue party. They also created some groovy picture frames, decorated their nametags, and made friendship bracelets in the Art Palace. Our Teen Adventure Group left on their two night overnights. They will stay tonight at the very popular Estuary spot, then move to Eagles Roost tomorrow night. Tonight's talent show had a surprise visit from the famous Four Directions, and Destiny’s band. They performed their biggest chart topping hit. We also had a few cabins show us their talent. We had a great first day of camp, and tomorrow we will be going out on our cabin overnights. The menu for today: Breakfast: Scrambled Eggs, Bacon, Hash browns, Milk, Water, Cereal Bar, and bagel/toast bar Lunch: Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, Creamy Potato Bacon Soup, Salad Bar, Water and Lemonade Dinner: Baked Teriyaki Chicken, Rice, Corn and Green Bean Medley, Salad Bar, Water, Milk, and Cupcakes for dessert.
