Session One Tuesday....still raining!


No Child Lef inside!

We may have considered building an ark yesterday with the rain that we were getting but the good news is that there was a few hours with sunshine and it wasn't a constant pouring all day.  Even if it would have been raining all day I don't think it would have kept the campers inside.  

The Teens packed up for their two night overnight and headed out of main camp to set up shelter and cook for themselves  near the estuary.  They stayed out all night and reports are coming in from the staff that they had a great night, played games, cooked delicious fajitas and are not letting the rain stop them.

The youth campers all got up early and headed out to the ocean front to experience tide pools in the -2.1 tide.  We only get tides this low a few times each summer so it was a treat!  





We are making sure each of our campers gets a good hot meal each time we eat! This morning's french toast was delicious and in just a bit we will have soup and grilled cheese along with the salad  bar.  The campers are wrapping up their interest group time (they get to choose from a list of topics to participate in for a couple of hours).  There is a group that made cardboard guitars and decorated them in the Art Palace and then went around performing air guitar for the other groups. They even played a lullaby  for the  babies that are here during our teen parent camp.  


 There is the lunch bell!! If you paid for one way email service don't forget to email your camper! They are loving getting so much mail! Bring on the grilled cheese and soup!
