​One of our final activities at the beach was a fire game in which the campers had to start a fire on one side of the beach, carry it across the water, and light another fire on the other side of the beach.
​Week 7 brought lots of challenges, trial and error, thrill, and as always adventure!

Foxes, Ravens, Falcons, Coyotes, and Rangers

For our morning groups, we all met at Little Harbour Beach at 9:00 am for an early start to the day.
We of course started swimming out in the ocean and floating in the currents with blow up tubes which was lots of fun!

We then played an interesting game in which each team (2 players) had to find one thing on the beach of each colour in the rainbow (plus black and white), and whichever teams had the best haul and colours won the round! It of course got very silly and some teams even found strange things such as wooden speakers and fish tanks!

Next, everyone got to jump off a big rock into the water which was of course a great time and we got lots of action shots! ​

​At 1:00 pm, the groups met up with their afternoon counterparts (or in the Ravens and Coyotes cases, everyone arrived at 1:00) and we began our long hike to Basin Head.
​Beginning at Little Harbour Beach, the groups walked along the shoreline and rocks all the way to our destination at Basin Head.

While walking, some groups played games such as many games on a large sand dune including races, climbing competitions, and seeing who could run down the dune in the least amount of steps! ​

The whole walk took around 2 hours, and upon arriving at Basin Head, everyone got to have free time jumping off the bridge or swimming through the currents or even just out in the ocean! Overall it was a super fun day for everyone. ​

Sparrows

The Sparrows arrived at 9:00 am at the Red Rock Camp and got straight to playing in the treehouse/play area! Everyone did their own thing for a while including playing zombie hunters, doing each other’s makeup, and playing spiders and bugs in the big green net.

Next, the Sparrows started a small campfire with the help of Jesse, and we all got to roast super yummy marshmallows! ​

​At 1:00, the afternoon Sparrows arrived and after another bit of playtime, we started a fun taste-testing game where each player was blindfolded and had to guess what it was they were eating! (Some stuff was really gross too!)

​After that, everyone walked down to the beaver pond to swim which we did until pick-up at 4:00.

All the Sparrows had lots of fun this week and Im sure they are excited for the coming week!
Week 7 was a great time for everyone involved and Week 8 is sure to be just as good.

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