Amazing 2nd week of 2nd session!

How wonderful the summer is here at Circle F Dude Ranch Summer Camp 2012.

Last week Tiffany Allan took out the first Path group (Pioneer adventure team-building hike) they pitched tents but many times the will take rope and tarps and build their own shelters. They spent the night at Marshmallow Inn so all of us could see them from across the lake in the morning. What a wonderful site on the way to the Lasso Lodge for breakfast to see the tents and the group around the campfire. Tiffany told us how they made “sack burgers” and put them in the fire to cook for dinner the night before.  The group splits up into three teams. One to build the shelters one to start the fire and one to do the cooking the cooperation is part of the team building experience.  Tiffany is a really great leader and Max Jameson her assistant is so into the outdoors that the two of them are an amazing team. The campers learned how to tie knots  and when they took their nature hike they learned different information about the eco-systems here at Circle F Dude Ranch Camp.   Tiffany went to Hollings University and studied outdoor education so she is very up all on the latest information the we all need to spend more time thinking about. Most of us don’t get outdoors enough during the school year and Tiffany’s Path program is a great reminder of how wonderful the different areas of the Circle F Dude Ranch Summer Camp can be. 

The waterfront this year is better then ever! Blake and Nick are running so many new programs from Life Guard training to swim lessons to help everyone improve. The  kayak races  and the new water boards and of course the “Buddy Board” are all working perfectly!

So whenever we need to find a camper for a “Child lonely  MOM” the reverse of “Homesick Camper” we know just where they are!

I am having the very best time at the Barn; Sherry makes it so much fun to work with the horses. Watching Chip the new baby jump around and the Photo class take pictures of him and his Mom Oreo just help make my day!

This week here at Circle F dude Ranch Summer Camp we are having Color Wars on 4^th of July and of course a 4^th of July Dance.

Then Thursday is the all-camp trip the younger campers will go to Lego Land and the older one to Wet & Wild. I’m sure everyone is looking forward to a great fun-filled day.

Ok everyone; have you asked Mom or Dad or Grandma or Grandpa to send you back to Circle F Dude Ranch for one more session? We are filling up fast so hurry and call Kris, Ben or Sheila in the office 863-676-4113 to book your chance to spend the end of the summer with us.
