Session 1, Day 3

Oh man! This morning was a little bit rough, since it was raining! Some of the Highlands cabins woke and were able to do something beautiful! They went tide pooling this morning, BEFORE breakfast! The tide was really low, so it was a great day for this!

 Alpine's Klickitat cabin lead a great flag ceremony this morning!

 After some cabin time to get ready for interest groups, we once again divided up into our groups to enjoy more fun:

  • Egg Drop with Peep and Otter dropped their containers off the whale watching deck, the lodge deck and if they survived the fall, which many did, they went to Old Craft to finish out the activity. 
  • What Not to Wear with Tulip and Yachats played a fashion themed game of Mafia and had a fashion show. 
  • How to be a Spy with Lilo and Trex, they came up with the spy names and made notebooks and ID cards. 
  • Highways Robbery/Highway Friendship with Bandit and Alma did a scavenger hunt around camp, played a bandit game, made forts and then dressed as bandits. 
  • Left Behind! Outdoor Survival with Blinker and Toast painted their faces camo style then went to the beach to play predator of prey in the dunes. 


 We enjoyed a great lunch and the campers are now packing up for their overnights. Sherwood will be spending the night at Pirates Cove, Highlands will be at Old Ranch and Alpine will be at the Estuary. 

The teens needed to return to main camp to gather warm clothes, dry their sleeping bags before heading out to the barn for the overnight.

We also hosted a slumber party for another nearby summer camp's staff. Welcome BB Camp to the wonderful Westwind Beach!

Today’s Menu: Breakfast: Chocolate Chip Pancackes, Fresh Fruit, Orange Juice, Sausage, Cereal Bar, Bagel/toast bar, Water Lunch: Tator Tot Cassarole, Salad Bar, Sandwhich Bar, Lemonade, Water Dinner: Units are on their overnights
