Imaginations Run Wild!

What a wonderfully wacky start to Wacky Week!  Groups were busy trying some experiments, making scientific discoveries, designing silly masks, and more.  Some groups played Ice Age tag with wooly mammoths and other animals getting “frozen in ice.”  Other groups worked together to answer science trivia questions!  There were scavenger hunts and nature walks and we weren’t even bothered by a bit of rain early in our day. Tomorrow the adventures continue!

Please print, sign and return the permission slip for this week’s field trips. Please note that our return time is later than a normal camp day!

Group 1 is off to the Children’s Museum in Boston
Group 2 is heading to the Science Museum.

Also, we want to extend a big thank you to the many families who donated supplies from our wish list.  Every generous gift is greatly appreciated!

First Day at the Pool!

We started with some cloudy skies and cooler temperatures, but the weather turned around once we got to the pool.  The water was a bit chilly, but the campers adjusted quickly and had a fabulous time in the water!  They were busy splashing, swimming, playing, and continuing to develop friendships.  It was a wonderful way to end a fun-filled first week!

Next week’s theme is Wacky Week (some science, some silliness, and more).

Please see the wish list below.  If you are interested in making contributions to camp, this list offers you an idea of what we need most.

Have a wonderful weekend and get ready to be wacky!

No Rain for Day 2!

We were a little worried early that the weather might not cooperate for us today, but the rain held off and we had another fantastic day!  Campers are making great connections with their new friends, learning names, and getting to know each other.

Today, we had many fun activities going on including yarn dolls, flags about our favorite things, a human roller coaster, and a team water relay game.  Our friendship tree that was started yesterday continues to grow and sprout new leaves!  We are all very excited for our field trip tomorrow!

Please remember: red camp shirt, sneakers, snack, drink, and permission slip!
