What a day today was! It could have been a movie!
We woke up this morning with bagels and cereal for breakfast, and of course orange juice followed by hot chocolate. The weather was absolutely perfect today, making getting out of the lake the hardest part of the day. We saw many smiles from campers who were able to pass out of their swimming and boating levels this morning. For dinner, we had meatloaf with mashed potatoes, corn, and many glasses of water to stay hydrated in the heat. Dessert was marble pudding, aka chocolate and vanilla pudding together as one. After rest hour we had general swim which felt so nice as the temperature was only rising throughout the day. For activity period we had lots of fun water activities such as jumping off of the tower, going on the sunfish, paddle boarding, and going on the Hunter. For supper we had our final eat out meal. I had a great time with cabins 7 & 8 where there was lots of laughs and cookie sharing. After supper all of the campers gathered up on the A-field, when all of a sudden the staff came running up dressed head to toe in black and face paint. Tonight’s evening program… Cops and Robbers! This is a game where the staff chases the campers and steals their given piece of paper if we are able to guess the correct color. The campers have to try and find their twin number to get points. It was tons of fun, although I am pretty sure that team staff crushed team camper. Afterwards we went in for a quick evening general swim which was the perfect way to end the day. We even did something never before done: sing goodnight songs in the lake! It was a sweet and precious moment for all of camp. This day most definitely goes down in the books for one of the best at camp ever, and we are hoping for our last two days of the summer to look similar as well.
