July 10, 2012

Monday was the first full day of session B. The morning was spent doing "Monday Fun Day", with each Unit Leader planning fun activities for the units to do together. Here is what each unit did:

Melissa and the Iroquois: An activity called, "The Challenge" with a maze, trivia, balloon ball, riddles and making bandanas

Ru and the Pioneers: Went over some important rules, decorated the new Pioneer Lodge: Turrell, came up with some new cheers and then had a cheer off against the Nation.

Deacon and the Nation: Played four rounds of Capture the Flag up in the nation and then went down to main camp for a cheer off against the Pioneers.

Shai and the Shawnees: Played America's best dance crew which apparently turned into one big dance party.

The CITs, meanwhile, prepped for their big Adventure Trip that departs this morning. They will be doing a three day, two night trip combining some Delaware River paddling and Appalachian Trail hiking.

Speaking of the CITs, major thanks to them for completing a terrific service project here at camp. They helped to light the trail to outdoor chapel by setting out solar powered path lights. Also, they re-designed the fire pit at the outdoor chapel, actually creating two separate fire pits on either side of the stage. The dual fires actually lit the stage, first time I can remember being able to see everything at an opening campfire. Great improvement and awesome job by Rob, MacKenzie and the CITs!

Opening campfire was full of songs, skits and laughter. We handed out 5 ambassador awards: Jared H., Henry H. Morgan T., Hailey F. and Zachary T. Thanks to these kids for referring friends to Camp Bernie this summer.
