Skating, Games, Water Balloon Ambush!

After an awesome dinner of grilled chicken, fettuccine with veggies, and quesadillas, the camp kicked off the evening with another skating session. The teams grouped up with their counselors and rolled up and down the rec bike path. The 62 campers learned how to conquer hills, bridge crossings, and even jumping over flags that lay across the path.

Afterwards, we "wound down" with some field games such as criss-cross, shipwreck and even the "yelling and screaming game". The campers were unaware where their counselors had gone off to while Danny Noyes and myself kept them engaged in Top Notch field. After some time of games, Matt's white truck appeared in the field with the American flag waving in wind. The campers stood perplexed, while their counselors charged out of the vehicle, decked out in warpaint and camouflage. It wasn't until a few kids were targeted and hit with water balloons did they realize they had been ambushed! The scene quickly took a turn into a whole camp water balloon fight! The excitement escalated as everyone ran and laughed while getting wet, (some completely soaked!)

After the excitement died down, we retired for the night with snacks of spice cakes and pretzels. Everyone is asleep in bed, getting rest for tomorrow's morning stretch and for some lucky ones, taking the miller fitness test.

Have a fabulous night. Until tomorrow!
