Summer Camp 3rd Session


It is shocking that the Summer Camp 3rd session has already started.  But what a great session it has started out being. Sunday registration went perfectly we were ready to meet and greet families at 8:30 so every one was taken care of quickly.

But before I start telling you what has been happening this week I can’t wait to tell you how wonderful the Banquet & Rodeo was ending a perfect 2nd session Circle F dude Ranch Summer Camp 2012. I just loved seeing everyone dressed up for the Banquet Friday night, and  I haven’t told you about the wonderful gifts Paul (the Circle F Dude Ranch owner) made sure were created for this years campers every year camper received a special gift as a remembrance of their experience. Sixth year campers received a special plaque other years were awarded equally with exciting items like a blanket with the Circle F Logo in the middle to keep them warm this winter. Each year was given something special. Of course the traditional turkey dinner with all the trimmings is something we all look forward too. Then it was on to the final dance when the older campers are allowed to stay up late and say goodbye again and again to new and old friends.

Saturday’s Rodeo was unbelievable! Taylor Brown & Kaitlyn Lesnikoski handled everything so smoothly that the crowd cheered non-stop! The drill team is beyond my ability to tell you everything about it! Oh and the dance team was equally wonderfully. Cassie the camper led the drill team  out with perfect command. The horses were carefully put through each different stage of the event. At one point they crossed in front of each other and it was beautiful to watch. For those of you who are registered on Bunk1 there are 277 pictures just from the Rodeo to make sure to take a look.

So here we are in 3rd session. Every day the weather has been perfect. Warm days cool nights. The first night we had the opening camp fire which allowed the counselors to put on their skits so campers could get to know everyone. We sang songs and told jokes and Ben did some interesting magic tricks.

Then it was off to bed and get ready for a Wonderful Monday. Blake at the waterfront and Taylor at the barn everyone being tested for their skill level is so much fun to watch. Then Super Hero dance at night so many things to do everyone is always excited to get started playing here at Circle F Dude Ranch Summer Camp 2012. This year we even have a team building area where we have all learned to work as a group and the kids really love it. Oh yes and before I forget Sherry believes we might even have another baby horse before the summer is over wouldn’t that be great! Well bye for now…

See Ya Jessie!
