It was another exciting day in the mythical world!  We went on a walk in search of Big Foot (rumor has it the creature was spotted!), there was another fun game of trolls and treasure, and there was a very entertaining performance designed and performed by some of our counselors and volunteers.

The play included a giant flying squirrel trying to capture a dragon’s golden football.  He received some help in outsmarting the dragon from a horse and unicorn.  They soaked him to extinguish his fire-breathing and even got him with a shaving cream pie!  There was lots of laughter and the children really enjoyed the performance!

Please remember to send in permission slips tomorrow.

**Morning drop offs need to be at camp by 8:55 AM tomorrow morning so that our bus can leave for the zoo at 9am.

We will return by 12:30 PM so the children only need snack and drink.  Remember red camp t-shirts and sneakers as well!

The imagination and creativity continues this week as we travel into the world of myths, magic, and fantasy!  There were dragons and unicorns, magic wands and fairy dust, and even wizard hats.  The variety of creations was amazing and seeing the magic wands really work was fantastic.  Counselors were being turned into frogs and cows, they were being frozen and unfrozen, and the look of wonder from our magical campers was awesome.

Our mini-sessions today included some Taekwondo, archery (like Robin Hood), dancing like the genie from Aladdin, and story telling about unicorns and magic.  We even had a fun game of Quidditch on the field.

Tomorrow the magic continues!  Please remember to send in the permission slip for Thursday’s trip to the zoo.  Also, as the weather warms up, please remember to send in water bottles.  We can refill them during the day.

What an amazing way to end a fabulously wacky and exciting week at camp!  We started the morning with a special visit from Mike, the Bubble Man!  He helped us learn and have fun at the same time.  We learned about how bubbles are made, why they pop, and what shapes they can be.  Campers were sticking arms through the bubbles without popping them, catching bubbles in their bare hands, and even getting to stand inside a bubble!  Such an awesome experience for everyone.  At the end of the presentation, we took off for the pool and it was a beautiful day for a refreshing dip in the pool!

Next week’s theme is Mythical Week, continuing the imagination and creativity!
