This week was triathlon week at land sports. The biking portion was performed on scooter boards, where they raced with other campers. The running portion was done in an obstacle course. The swimming portion took place on a blue tarp while army crawling under ropes (“imaginary swimming”). We hope the campers loved it and look forward to next week!

This week we had a unique experience at Farming. Extra-terrestrial beings caught our garden activity in their radars and were curious about our garden here on Earth. They kidnapped a garden staff and demanded that the campers collect a series of files to be sent up to them in order to document the garden so they could learn more. Our campers were able to collect all of the files, get clues from the aliens and found our staff! Campers also had the opportunity to be garden super heroes by weeding the garden beds.

Sports Academy beat the heat this week by drinking lots of water! We had our TTE winners announced for session 1… congratulations to A3! This week we played baseball and tennis. Each sport had it’s own skillset. The ones that stand out most are learning how to run bases for baseball and forehead shots for tennis. Next week we will have our extreme day! Our theme will be announced before family night on Wednesday. Get a good rest and be ready for a fun packed week coming up!

Bring forth the elephants and grab some popcorn… this week was circus week! Our campers put on a circus show with spinning plates, juggling, ribbons and hoola hoops.

CAMP DANCE WEEK: The program was centred around teaching the brand new Camp Dance! We played a game in which all the cabins at camp competed with one another to see who knew the camp dance best.

This session at music we introduced campers to music recording. We began by recording campers singing various camp songs (like Hands Are Strong, Campity Camp) and Junior Flagpole. We then began recording “Love Yourself” by Justin Bieber, and “Can’t Stop the Feeling” by Justin Timberlake.

We also reintroduced African Drums to our campers. We summarized the fundamentals, and introduced new rhythms.

We also created a “Message of the Day” for the campers to discuss during recording traditions. One message this week was “Share the love, love is power, love is all you need.” Campers take turns sharing their ideas on the message of the day, lead by Matt & Glenn.
