Evening Activities - Day 1

After digesting a delicious pasta dinner cooked by the Round Hearth's famous cook Sue Miller, the camp sped down to the Top Notch Fields for our first evening activity. Everyone rotated through 4 stations: speedball (a perennial camp favorite), capture the flag, a mountain bike obstacle course, and swimming time down the Stowe Rec Path.

We like to begin camp with this session to familiarize the campers with each other as well as with their bikes before we head into the woods for our mountain biking session tomorrow, and it was great to see the kids already start trying new things, whether that was riding up a narrow ramp, swerving through cones and gates, or even jumping over small hurdles.

Outside of the obstacle course, we saw some fierce competition between countries in both speedball and capture the flag, before they cooled off in some very "refreshing" water at a swimming spot about a half a mile down the Rec Path.


Great start to the week, and we are looking forward to mountain biking and our first instructional session with Danny tomorrow!
