Summer Camp Week 6: Evening Cookout

8/8/2021

Week 6 was certainly a different week in terms of location and times, but as always, it was super fun nonetheless! 

Foxes, Ravens, Falcons, Coyotes, and Rangers​

​The morning  Foxes, Falcons and Rangers met at Cow River Beach at 2pm and engaged in many activities such as building a dam to block the water in a small stream, creating a fire on the beach, catching frogs, and best of all, playing and swimming in the water!

​The Foxes even caught a giant bass which they were very proud of, (I thought it was gross, but I guess that’s what I get for never going fishing!)

We then walked the groups to the old Monticello School house where we met the afternoon groups at 5pm and began to cook.

​For our main course, everyone worked hard to make a delicious chili, including beans, tomatoes, onions, meat, garlic, and spices!

While some were busy with the chili, others got to making bacon, macaroni, and homemade lemonade/fruit punch!  I thought the chili was amazing and I’m sure everyone would agree with me, it was just the right amount of spicy and was a perfect temperature!

After everyone finished their dinner, we got straight to work on making a delicious dessert. Of course we roasted marshmallows and made cookies, but we also let everyone in on how to make a secret Red Rock dessert which is absolutely delectable! ​

​To finish out the night, our groups all played little games and did lots of fun activities around the schoolhouse, such as one game involving wearing and switching lots of funny clothes, and having to wear a super silly outfit in order to win! We all went home happy and full.

Sparrows

Our Sparrows kept the same 9-4 schedule at the Red Rock camp this week, and engaged in lots of fun activities! In the morning, we played in the new big green net, pretending to be spiders and bugs, and catching each other.

​After everyone had their fill of this, the Sparrows picked lots of yummy raspberries in the field and of course got to taste test!
To finish off the morning, each camper got to paint recycled bottles to make their very own boats, each shining with their individual personalities!

​After lunch, the Sparrows took their boats down to the stream and had races with them to see whose custom boat was the fastest! Next, we split into teams and hid marbles in the water for the other team to try to find them.

​To finish off the day, we splashed around in the water and had lots of fun playing and swimming.

Overall, week 6 was a great time and we all had lots of fun.

See you next week!
Yours in adventure,
Nathan, Jesse, Brooklyn, Ashlyn, Sophie, and Carrie
