Summer Camp Update

Activity Profile: Hot days.

The only places to escape the heat were in the pool or in the shade with a frozen Fruitfull, and that is just where most kids were found.  Swimming is one fo thebest way to cool off so many campers grabbed a buddy and jumped into the pool during free time this afternoon. The lifeguards watched on as the kids splashed around meeting new friends and hanging with old ones. Most girls lounged by the pool or in the shade while others were found at Arts and Crafts drawing up posters and making friendship bracelets.

The courts were also swarming with campers, mostly with boys from Algonquin, who played every sport from gaga to soccer.  Jordan, an Algonquin Counselor, got together a basketball game where “The Mighty Turtles” beat out their opponent 15-13 in a close match.  In addition to the courts many campers were to be found paddling around the lake in a fun yak, a great way to spend the afternoon.

On the other side of the lake, boys gathered to go fishing and nearly caught a huge bass but were disappointed when their line snapped and it swam away.  The day wasn’t completely unsuccessful though many of the campers caught Blue Gills ad small Sunfish.
