Waterbury Reservoir

For our afternoon activity we suited up and hit the Waterbury Reservoir! The reservoir is only a short fifteen minute bus ride from the Round Hearth and is always a favorite because SDSC campers love to play in the water. A multi-ball game of keep away, hand stand contests, shark, sand castles... what more could you want! We played around in the water for about an hour and our session culminated with an all-camp 'egg contest.' In their perspective teams, each camper rolled up into an egg at the same time to see how long they could float for. The top two contestants from each group were chosen compete in the final round. Brady from team USA was our winner!


After the
 reservoir we returned to the Round Hearth and made a slip n' slide in the Vigneau's backyard! While we owe so many thanks to the Vigneau's as the owners and operators of the Round Hearth, they really went out of their way to create a fun and safe environment for the slip n' slide. It was also only possible with the help of Johnson's baby shampoo, a lot of tarps, duct tape, a hose and plenty of water buckets. SDSC campers all tried their hardest to make it down as far as they could go - but it as sooo loooong that only a few could make it to the very end. Everyone had a blast!










We hope the fun continues tonight in our evening activity for Super Speedball and a swim in the river!
