ON 1 Welcome to Overnight Camp!

Welcome to Overnight Camp! We are so happy to see you all here for our first overnight camp session since 2019.

After we said our goodbye’s to our wonderful families we headed out on the road to the lake! The bus was a wonderful time and we got to meet lots of the people that we will be spending the week with.

When we got to camp we had a snack and community meeting where we discussed some of the rules we have at camp to help make sure that all of us are nice and safe. Some of the rules that we have are:

• We show respect to each other, ourselves, the environment, and the property that we are on.

• We cruise in twos with our shoes! This means that if we go anywhere, we let our counsellors know, and we bring a buddy with us. Our counsellors just want to know where we are.

• No technology!

With all the not-so-fun, but necessary rules behind us, we jumped into some get-to-know-you games before setting up our cabins and going for a tour of our awesome overnight location! Before we knew it, it was time for supper. We had meatloaf and salad. We learned that meatloaf can actually be super delicious and gets a bit of a bad wrap.

After supper, we had some time with our 2:6 groups were we made a group contract and some braids before heading over to the point for campfire! The point is such a fantastic place because it’s a little bit of a walk and we can see the lake while singing our campfire songs.

Before we knew it, campfire was over and we were on our way back to our cabins to start our bedtime routines. We read some stories, did some mindfulness to calm our bodies and get ready for sleep.

That’s all for today! We’ll be back tomorrow with some more updates of our adventures at Overnight Camp!
