For those less familiar with the day-to-day schedule of SDSC, we conclude each day with evening activities on the Top Notch Fields just down the road from our home at the Round Hearth. Tonight saw all the campers rotating again between different stations of bike and swim, speedball, and (our feature for the evening) Team Building Challenges.
But before heading out to the field, the camp directors surprised campers and counselors with a whipped cream pie eating contest! Cream flew, cheers roared, and smiles spread all throughout the room.
While the clouds threatened outside, we were happy to see that the only thing raining down on the field tonight were the campers' fast footsteps as they raced up and down towards the speedball goals. It's pretty clear that Speedball, a combination of soccer and handball, has already become a camp favorite. 
After our ride through the woods this evening, the campers were able to easily speed down the Stowe Rec Path after speedball for a quick jump in the river before returning for team-building stations. Campers walked in unison with team skis, flipped over a bed sheet while standing on top of it, untangled human knots, and crossed rivers full of alligators. It was one eventful night!
Great end to a great first full day, and we are excited to hike tomorrow!
