Monday morning once again brought the deadly combination of the Foxes and the Sparrows as they joined forces to tackle the challenges, the first of which was an obstacle course run with a twist. Competitors had to navigate obstacles, passing jugs of water along the line of players to get them to the end. What is the twist you ask? No hands allowed. ​

Tuesday’s girls showed us that they meant business. They came hungry to win, and they performed like true competitors. On top of this, there were no divisions on the team - they worked together and walked together there was no person left behind. ​

​For the afternoon, the Falcons also went for a hike down to the flats. Though it was a rocky start in the beginning, the team found their footing and got to walking, one step at a time. In one of the strongest performances this year, the team managed to get to the beach quicker than the other teams, while also scoring the most points from treasure found upon the shore. We celebrated some birthdays this week with some Birthday Bread and it was a massive hit. Happy Birthday (you know who you are :))!

Although Friday was a bit rainy, the Rangers did not let it stop them from having a good time! 
In the morning, they played a game which involved splitting into team (everyone against Mr. Paton), finding blocks, and tying each other up!

In the afternoon, the Rangers braved the cool weather and walked down to the Rollo Bay Flats, having to walk through mud, seaweed, and deep water on the way there!

After arriving at the beach, we got straight to work building a small fire with an 'oven' that they found along the way. Stove top stuffing, marshmallows, and birthday bread were all cooked and enjoyed. 

The Rangers finished off their day by swimming in the water at low tide and having fun searching for various different sea creatures. Great job this week!

Week 3 turned out to be a wild ride but it was super fun all the same. We can't wait to see everyone again for our next adventure!

Yours in adventure,
Nathan, Jesse, Brooklyn, Sophie, and Ashlyn

Then, they braved the climbing wall where they raced each other to the top once again. ​

On Tuesday, the Ravens did an awesome scavenger hunt! They had 12 different places that
they had to get to and snap a quick pic. Some of the objectives required more than a simple smile, however. The scavenger hunt asked them to climb crumbly cliffs, raise a flag, and venture through the dark and dreary tunnel. ​

Friday is our oldest, most experienced group. The Rangers! This group of girls are not to be
messed with. Given their expertise with fire, they whipped up a quick flame and cooked some tasty treats over the open fire. But what’s a Red Rock experience without some silly clothes to go along with it? Ella Francis suited up in a wonderful shining pink vest that really contrasted well against Parker’s rad leather jacket. Then the fun was swept off into our hanging net where the children chased, tagged, and wrestled each other down to the ground. Friday was an all around spectacular day; can’t wait to do it again next week! ​
