The end of a fantastic first day!

Hello families,
It's Roger's day off, so I thought I would bring you up to date on our first full day of session 3. We were off and running by 8:00am. Flag raising, morning thought and breakfast...all by 8:40. Then it was back to the cabin for cabin clean up. Everyone makes their bed, organizes their belongings and helps with cabin chores,yes your kids, before heading off to their first activities. It is so much fun for us to watch all the enthusiasm associated with new campers. It certainly reminds us why we do our job! Before we know it is lunchtime. Hamburgers, french fries, corn, pears and salad bar...yummy! Siesta follows lunch. It is a time for reading, writing a letter, playing a board game or just getting a little much needed rest. At 2:15 the bell rings for cantina time. Campers can get gatorade and a snack of trail mix or peanut butter crackers before heading off for an afternoon of activities. Dinner!! Spaghetti and meatballs or plain spaghetti or spaghetti with sauce, no meatballs. The choice is up to you, personally, I think the meatballs are fantastic! Everybody had our favorite desert, ice cream!Tonight is our "Welcome Dance". While some enjoy dancing, others play kickball, soccer or just spend time getting to know their new friends better. The sunset is beautiful,the crickets are out,it is cooling down and the night is coming. Good night and thank you for allowing us to get to know your wonderful children.
We love our job....
Diana and the gang
