We might have hit the middle of the week but our activities are anything but ordinary today. We started early this morning with a hot breakfast of french toast, sausage, and fresh fruit. As our volunteer Missy said, "it was pretty darn good." Then after our flag raising and cabin cleanup (by the way cabin 7 won the golden faucet for the cleanest cabin, and cabin 3 won the silver toilet seat for the second cleanest cabin) it was off to a day of activities.
The Trekkers, our oldest campers, headed to Pilot Mountain for their overnight adventure. They will have the opportunity to hike, river canoe, repel, and sleep under the stars. Not to mention cook a real campfire dinner over a real wood fire. The adventurer group, the next oldest group of campers, is camping out here at camp. They also had the added opportunity to work on GPS tracking today and Geo caching. Camp has gotten so high-tech.
Tonight our regular campers had the opportunity to take part in our annual camp talent show. We were treated to story telling, duck calls, violin playing, singing, dancing, karate demonstrations, double jointed displays, and much more. Our event was hosted by a pirate, then crashed by yet another pirate who agreed, after a dance, sword fight and parli to agree to share the hosting duties.
After our evening snack some of us had the chance to visit the moon. Staci and the camp staff set up a really neat telescope so that we could view the moon which was very visible in our evening sky. After talking with the man on the moon we headed for the showers. As the campers settled in for a good night's sleep and the counselors settled in for a well deserved rest so that we can get ready for our last full day of adventure.
