Discovery Week: Day 3

Fun with Cabin Arapaho

Today was full of uncertainty. The weather was always just shy of forcing us into rainy day schedule. We weren't sure if outpost was going to happen until it started and morning linecall had to happen indoors. 

I have one thing to say to all that uncertainty. We beat all of it. Not a single thing was interrupted today by the weather. It stayed just far enough away for us to have a great day. 

Our staff were ready to make the shift to rainy day if necessary, we were prepared to move our outpost program indoors and everyone pitched in where it was required.  It's just another example of our dedicated staff being willing to be flexible when we need them.

Before we met in the Ponderosa Room for Linecall, we had a pancake breakfast with fruit. We had Camp Council indoors and then came outside to a bright shiny day for our activities. Go-Karts was up and running after the track dried, but never fear the kids had tons of fun playing games until they started.

The cafeteria came to life again at 1:00 PM with a frito casserole and a full salad bar. The staff ate together and traded stories of their campers. 

Back to the regular drill with another set of activity rotations. Dinner was brief for the staff, as they ran off to practice for our third night of outpost, but it was a good meal of hoagies and salad. We headed up to the fort for the final installment of the outpost play, which was a blast for our campers. 

No day at camp is dull, so I can’t wait to see you all in the morning,                -Colin
