Tuesday: Tween Week

@ Wet N' Wild in Palm Springs!
TUESDAY
   Breakfast: Breakfast potatoes, cheesy eggs, peaches, bananas, apple sauce, toast, selection of cereal, and juice.
   Lunch: Enchiladas, Spanish rice, corn, churros, salad bar.
   Dinner: Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, tomato soup, jello, salad bar, and assorted fruits.

MY TOP THREE
   #1:I know everyone is probably tired about my consistent pattern of blogging about the Crafting Art Class but today they did this:


   We handed out tiles of this poster to all of our campers, and then had them (1) duplicate, (2) or color shift the image, (3) and they weren't allowed to trace. Then we placed all of the tiles together on grid paper to assemble the final image. Considering that they didn't know what the final image would be, I think they did very well.    

   #2: We had our Tuesday 'Day Away' trip to Wet N' Wild in Palm Springs. While we only had two participants, it was still an exciting experience and everyone got back to camp safe and sound. Tomorrow we'll have twelve campers and six staff members going to an indoor cart racing track. The photos will be posted tomorrow night!

   #3: We have so many campers away at Lake Silverwood that we took them another boat this morning. With two boats they'll get more time out on the water and spend more time learning to tube, wakeboard, and maybe even kneeboard. We already have some talented campers who clearly have some skills, and we're looking forward to going back out on the lake for another day of fun tomorrow. 

PARENTS & CAMP 
    We love your feedback. Thank you for all of your emails of encouragement. Today our blog reached over 10,000 VISITS from our camp family. We hope you enjoy reading how things are going at camp and we will keep posting information to keep you informed. If you like the blog let us know, we're already planning to make a few improvement next summer.

STAFF & CAMP
   Our camp counselors are amazing. Our staff awards are coming up soon and we started discussions today about which employees have been impressive and deserve some special recognition for going above and beyond the call of duty. It was quite a discussion, with all of the supervisors considering so many different staff. It's always a good thing when we have many different staff to consider.


TOMORROW 
   Navajo, Nez Perce, and Mohawk are in the pool during our afternoon rotations...
   Hopi and Arapaho will be doing arts & crafts...
   & Iroquois and Mojave are going to be at the PSR Camp skate park...

   Wishing all of our parents, grandparents, and camp family a good night!
