LET'S BEGIN

Week two is upon us and we couldn't be more stoked about it! After our closing ceremonies campers that were staying enjoyed some well deserved downtime which included lots of sleep, a pizza party, mini golf, laundry and swimming. Today we welcomed 14 new campers to the SDSC family. We spent the afternoon getting to know each other and going over the weeks schedule. Next we enjoyed a dinner of grilled chicken, peas, salad and rice with boston creme and apple pie's for dessert. 

After dinner we loaded the bus down to the fields for our evening activities. We split the camp into half, one group went to Foster's swimming hole to jump in the water while the other group played some field games, then both groups switched. At the field we played speedball and Tank. Speedball is a mixture of soccer and handball and campers love to play when they're here. Tank is a super fun game where two groups have to communicate with a blindfolded teammate, directing them towards flags. The blindfolded teammate must listen, find one of the flags then throw it to tag their opponent out. It sure is a fun game to watch! 















Tomorrow morning we will start the day with a field session led by Coach Eric Barthold. Eric was a division I skier at Colby College and the leading scorer on the Colby Soccer team as a senior.  After he graduated, he coached at Killington Mountain School before returning to Colby where he worked as the assistant coach for a number of years. Eric is going to introduce basic athletic stance and we can't wait!
