I sat back this morning after flag watching our amazing Unit Assistants this morning as they led songs. This session of camp we have a group of teen boys. I noticed that when the teen boys love camp and get into all of the songs and being silly and fully embracing the camp life, the younger boy campers seem to take that as approval and follow suit. This week we have some really amazing teen boys! They are loving helping upfront singing, they volunteered to lead skits and are helping with interests groups as I type. They have fully embraced camp!
This week we are also fortunate to have "Boombox" from Girls Inc. here working with our girls. Today they did some great activities around what it means to be a Smart, Strong and Bold girl. They shared their dreams and hopes. Tomorrow this same group of girls will put on their engineer hats and use some S.T.E.M skills to build structures with marshmallows!
The weather is much cooler today and the fog hung over camp but you would never know that since there are still kayaks in the water, arrows flying at targets, kids running around in sand and playing games and even a pack-out sack lunch!
Here is hoping that the fog will clear and we will have warmer weather tomorrow as the campers will be packing up for their overnight campouts!
