ON 2 - DAY 1: Welcome to CAMP!

Welcome to CAMP! We are so excited to have you all with us for an exciting week of fun, sun and everything in between.

We started our day off with loading up our gear and ourselves onto the bus to our campsite for the year PIONEER LODGE! Once we arrived we went right into our community meeting, and had a quick snack.

We then headed up to our cabins to get all of our bags unpacked and bunks set up. Time seems to just fly around here as it was already time for lunch. We had build your own chicken wraps with lettuce, tomatoes, sauces, and fries. 

During lunch, our counsellors sold their “choices”, our choice blocks are a time where campers can pick which activities they would like to participate in for our two choice blocks per day. Today’s choices were rock climbing/canoeing, bead animal making, and gaga ball.

Every activity was an absolute blast! With everyone tired out from all the fun, it was the perfect time for some 2:6 / free time with our groups. This is a great opportunity for our campers to set out some goals for their time at camp, and a chance for them to take a break from our planned daily activities.

After 2:6 / free time it was supper, which was butter chicken with rice and vegetables. We then headed for our opening campfire, we all sang our hearts out and laughed ourselves silly at the fun skits. After which we began to hand out our “steps in the right direction”, steps are our time at camp to recognize each other for the awesome things we did during that day. They can be handed out with a reason or just because we want to be kind and give to someone else.

 It was finally time for bed, and we all felt exhausted after such an exciting day! We settled into our bedtime programming, and got some much needed rest. What does tomorrow have in store for us? Come back here and find out!
