Time Travel
 

THIS WEEKS THEME: "Time Travel"

 

Starting back at the age of the dinosaurs (was that the 50's?) all the way up to the future, we are going to have some fun learning traveling through time to learn about past decades and using our imaginations to think what might happen in the future.


Hope you are ready to have fun, because we are going to have a blast!

Decades Week Earrings

MONDAY:
Techno Ball:
2nd - 6th graders have the opportunity to learn and play the Camp Doodles "underground game", Techno Ball. Our multi-purpose room is decked out with a DJ light system and...we can't tell you more!

 

viking ship races


Chess Championships:
If you are a chess player, today is your day to shine. We will have the opportunity to play and learn the art of chess.


Capture The Flag:
Need we say more!? Our big grassy field is calling…what’s your strategy going to be?


 

TUESDAY:
Dress Up Day: Time travel / decades
Try to find your bell-bottoms, wear something tye-dye or just throw a couple flowers in your hair as we celebrate any decade you can think of…including future decades. Some campers have come dresses as knights (in shining armor), some have come dresses as cowboys from the Wild Wild West. Others draw peace signs & smiley faces on their checks - some mix up all of this!

Ice Cream Day (~1:30pm - 3:45pm)

Who can resist a delicious ice cream in the middle of the summer - we sure won't! Tuesday afternoon marks our hike to a local Ice Cream Store where we will tempt our taste buds with delectable ice cream flavors.

We leave in small groups after lunch, so please give yourself extra time if you need to pick your child up between 1:30 and 3:45, when all groups will be back on site for our daily slideshow. 

If you need to pick your child up early, we are happy to *try* to get them back for you.




 

WEDNESDAY:
FIELD TRIP: (4th-6th Grades). Click here for details.

Karaoke Party:
It doesn’t matter if you sound like Hannah Montana or not, because Karaoke is a time for people to come together and have fun singing the songs they know. If you have a song you particularly like, feel free to bring a copy of the CD to camp in case we don’t have that particular one (just remember to take it at the end of the day). Our karaoke machine is hooked up to a screen so you can read the words as you sign along. Very cool! Very fun!

 

K-6th: Bike Day:
Like most camp activities, your child can decide whether he/she wants to participate in our fun Bike Day. When you come onto campus, and when you leave for the day, please WALK your bike.


K-1st: Ride around on campus ("razor scooters" okay)

2nd-3rd: Bike trip off campus, probably down the bike path and side streets.
4th-6th: Off campus trip, possibly into downtown to grab ice cream (there is minimal time on side streets).
All bikers must wear a HELMET and older kids should bring a water bottle for the off-campus trips. Campers participating in the off-campus trips need a bike, NOT A SCOOTER/RAZOR!
Please leave clearly marked bike and helmet outside, near the handball/slaughter backboards. Bikes will not be brought inside the building, so please be sure to pick your bike up at the end of the day!


 


 

THURSDAY:

Craft: Tye-Dye (washing instructions)

Bring in something white if you would like to tye-dye. This can be a shirt, boxers, socks, etc. A cheap Hanes™ tee-shirt works just fine. Please, please do not wear any clothes that you can’t afford to have ruined by the permanent dye (which tends to gets everywhere!).

 

Wacky Water Day:
APPROXIMATE TIME: 1:30pm - 3:00
Wacky Water Day is finally here! Water Day is a day to look forward to! Water Days are filled with fun activities ranging from massive water slides to water balloon tosses and games like "splish splish splash" to just running around and being silly in the sprinkler.
Alternate activities will be available for children who do not want to participate or if Mother Nature did not receive our memo regarding water day. However, we recommend that all children bring the items listed below as the fun is often contagious!
TO BRING: A swimsuit (under clothes is preferable), towel and wear sunscreen.
OPTIONAL: Water shoes, a change of clothes, a water pistol.
********************************************************************************
WATER PISTOL RULES:
Water pistols okay during this time. They should be clearly marked with your child's name and kept in their bags until explicit permission is given by the camp staff to take them out. When permission is given, the camp staff will cordone off a specific area OUTSIDE where water pistols can be used. Anyone using them outside of this area will be asked to return their equipment to their bags and find another activity.
Before arriving at camp, please discuss with your child that the rules regarding water pistols at our camp so everyone can enjoy this fun day, staff included! :-)

CIT / StAFF LIPSYNC

New to Summer 2010, the Counselors-In-Training and Junior Counselors (and perhaps some paid staff) will perform a lipsync during morning assembly...a great way to start the day.


AWARDS CEREMONY:
Every Friday afternoon, just before checkout is our Awards Ceremony. Our staff give out numerous awards to their campers ranging from "Good Listener" to "Great Camp Attitude" and "Sunscreen Award" to "Spirit Award".


This is an event that the campers won't want to miss!
