Family Camp 2010


Family Camp!!!!!!! A great start to the summer.  The whole family attends and its was so great to see all the returners as well as the new families! Words cannot describe how exciting it is to see all the families pull in.



Highlights
 
  • Seeing all the retunring families was AWESOME and so was meeting all the new families. ~ Salmon
  • Erin taught me a part of an irish dance, i think it was part of the jig! I was so excited. I love to watch the Deighans perform! ~ Salmon
  • Mrs. Fornshill taught me a lot of leather craft tricks. ~ Sunshine
  • Many of the parents praised my efforts and enthusiasm in the nature class which gave me confidence for the rest of the summer. ~ Jukebox
  • Mr. & Mrs Magnicolda made me feel really great about the campfire on Thursday night. ~Appleseed
  • Seeing the teens performance at the closing assembly was great! ~Appleseed ( They created a song to thank us to the tune of Tik Tok by Ke$ha)
  • Having the campers come up and tell me jokes and riddles. ~ Showtime
  • At the campfire, the campers were asking for me....DOC!!! Also they thank yous from them at the closing assembly for all of our hard work. ~Doc
  • I loved watching the kids really put themselves out there in the talent show. also the teens really blew me away with all the thought and planning they put into the teen suprise. ~ Sandy (Staff olympics, including song competition, piggy back race, and limbo contest)
  • Two of the mothers accidentally flipped their canoes during a game, even though they were doing everything they could all week to stay dry. The best part was the son of one of the mothers having to "rescue" the women. The son didn't let them live it down for the rest of the week. ~Sizzle
  • One of the children in my class got over a fear of the water when he swam by himself with a lifejacket. ~ Froggie
  • Badge pouring apple juice on a camper instead of water during a skit. ~ Froggie


These are just a few highlights. Family camp was a great way to start the summer and got the staff prepared for the rest of the summer. They got to teach their classes for the first time and get a feel for what camp is really like. Most of the families ( if not all) pre-registered for next year! It will be awesome to see all of them pull up next year!
