SUNDAY, SUNDAY, SUNDAY!!!

Howdy Circle F Family,

I can't believe that one week of 3rd session is gone. It has been a wonderful week, but, how did it go so fast. Last night we had our swim meet. The camp was broken up into four groups and they competed in four relay events including: inner-tube race, ping-pong ball relay (where campers had to blow a ping-pong ball across the surface of the lake), noodle relay (where campers have to swim with a noodle between their legs) and the funniest, the flipper relay (where campers run as fast as possible while wearing swimming fins). The winner of each group got to go to bed with the next older group (this is a big reward at camp).

Sunday is a special day at camp. We start the day with wake-up at 8:00 instead on 7:30. This makes everyone (especially the teenagers) very happy. After wake-up each cabin has a picnic breakfast at the cabin (that is why you cannot call on Sunday morning to talk to your campers). After breakfast, campers spend the first part of the morning doing an extended clean-up. The campers will take everything out of the cabin, clean super well, change sheets, and prepare the cabin for another week of camp.

After camp clean-up we have an extended morning thought. This morning Matt Berg, the head of rock wall, will deliver the morning thought. Next, we will build floats for our carnival. Each cabin gets materials and then builds a float for our carnival (which is after lunch). Cabins have until lunch to complete their floats.

After Lunch is extended siesta and the parade (be sure to check out the pictures from the parade). Next we will host a carnival. We have: 2 bounce houses, a blow up slip and slide, a blow up water slide, face painting, and multiple carnival games. This is probably one of the favorite days at camp.

Thank you for your comments on the pictures and the blog. If you have any questions, please leave a comment and we will try to answer them here. I am sorry to say, that I am unable to translate the Spanish blog. It is basically a compilation of some the earlier blogs.

Fantastic Wishes,
Roger and the gang

P.S. What's Today? What? What's Today? It's Super Sunday. How Long? All Day Long. We hope so.
