Thursday: Conversations

Welcome back to another wonderful day at overnight camp! We cannot believe today was our last full day! We started off our morning with another polar bear dip before getting ready for the day and heading down to breakfast. For breakfast, we had french toast, bacon and fruit! 

After breakfast, we had 2:6 time where we checked in with the goals we set earlier this week, before heading over to a camp wide game of Phobias, where counsellors act like they are afraid of something our campers didn’t know of, and campers have to find out what that thing is in order to bring them back to our program coordinator, Juniper. 

After camp wide game, we made our way over to social skill. Our social skill today was Conversations. We talked about different ways we can keep conversations going by asking questions, listening and adding something related. We then played fun games like Celebrity where a group of campers guess what celebrity a host camper is  out describing using less and less information as each round progresses. 

After social skill, we had some transition time before we headed over for lunch where we had chicken fingers, fries and veggies. Following lunch, it was time for rest hour. We went back to our cabins and chose a low energy activity to rest our bodies.

After rest hour, we headed to our choices for the afternoon. Our choices on this sunny afternoon where horse care, tie dye and water games! 

We then had kangaroo court, where campers participate in court to try and get a couple counsellors slimed for crimes against camp. Two counsellors, Prism and Grizzly were both found guilty and they were both slimed to achieve justice.

We headed into free time and then had sausage on a bun for supper: yum! After supper, we had our closing campfire, where we held our award ceremony and then made smores!

With a perfect day to end our week, we all went to bed early to get ready for our big trip home!

See y’all real soon!!
