Florida Summer Camp - Session Two Update

Florida Summer Camp at Circle F Dude Ranch couldn’t be more exciting and more “Funtastic” than it has been this past week. Everyone seems to have more energy then ever. Blake at the waterfront along with Teresa and Hula and of course Molly and the rest of the crew are helping each camper enjoy every bit of the toys like the Wibit and the Sumit and jumping off the Blob. I get so thrilled watching Bubba show the boys in his cabin how to jump really high after they climb to the top of the Wibit. Kevin even did a special turn when he knew we were all watching over 4th of July weekend. Saturday we got to help the campers do extra activities in celebration of the weekend. We even had corn dogs for lunch with burgers and fries.



Sunday was lazy Sunday to start the counselors brought breakfast to the cabins so the kids who wanted could sleep in the it was an all out soccer game or volleyball or basketball you name the game and it was being played somewhere at camp on Special Sunday. Then Sunday afternoon was Carnival Day- cotton candy and lots of water slides. All the campers were having a blast!! I know I was tired by nightfall so I’m sure the youngsters were as well!


Then on Monday we had Special schedule because it was the fourth we even had a dance on the field with music streaming out of the Roundup everyone was dancing and having some good old-fashioned fun. Then Jarred and Mark light special fireworks just for us and we all gathered around to watch.


Logan and Sherry keep us busy at the barn since most of the kids ride regularly. The horses are always so friendly and Spirit and Kiki watch as we go put on rides all day long.


Monday Travis took cabin photos of everyone and yesterday he took all the campers pictures with a horse to be given to them as they head for home at the end of a session.


I’m sure you are getting the idea of how many activities go on throughout the day but we all look forward to siesta then cantina followed by more fun then most of the campers thought possible.


Every night Jarred has a different program planned and I know he posted it on Facebook for all the Moms and Dads to see. It’s amazing how many different events he can think up and the stuff he gets to make everything so special.


I spoke with Tom on Sunday and he promises for next week he will fill me in on his vantage point as head of boys and I promise to tell you everything he says.


Mia is having a great time as head of girls and she said to make sure and say hi to all of you.


This blog wouldn’t be complete with me telling you what Paul has been saying every time I see him. He has been loving how many campers come over to chat and tell him about their day-- getting to know everyone’s name and what they like doing and some special food they tried has made this year very special. He has been busy making sure there is room for every youngster who wants to come to camp. So tell Mom & Dad to hurry as there are only a few spots left
