BIG CAMP 2010

1. MISSISSIPPI MISCHIEF- JUNE 14-18

Nothing is more fun than hanging out on the banks of the Mississippi.  Lets build a forte in the woods. We'll have some crazy old-fashioned fun with watermelon seed spitting, sack races, poison ivy and frog jumping contests.  A scavenger hunt will help us to make our natural pet pal and see how well we know the woods.  Make homemade paper and a bowl out of clay.  We'll end the week with a little campfire treat!

 

2. ALIEN INVASION- JUNE 21-25

Every few years, some really strange visitors from outer-space drop by.  They are really getting sneaky because they seem to look more and more like the counselors.  Help Miss Barb figure out which counselors are aliens and build a transporter to travel to other planets.  Save a spaceman, escape asteroids and have a moon rock relay.  Take home your own robot and glow in the dark pillow case.

 

3. HOME OF THE BRAVE-JUNE28-JULY 2

Be proud to be Americans.  This is your chance to see what you've got.  Games and challenges will teach you the importance of team work.  How about a little army dodge ball, a flag relay or survival food challenge?   We'll take a picture of your platoon for your patriotic frames.  Learn about how the wind effects paratroopers, rocket balloons and wind socks.  In the end, everything will be ducky sir!

4. A KNIGHT'S TALE- JULY 12-16

This is your chance to star in a true camp comedy.  As in years past, this camp uses the talents of all the campers to write scripts, make props, costumes and even star in their own movie.  This year's movie will be the heroic fight between the White Knight and the evil Black Knight.  What obstacles will the knights have to overcome?  Maybe a dragon, a toll bridge or some swamps.  Everyone will participate in our knight's tournament on Friday.   Lights, Camera, Action! 

5. MONSTER MAYHEM- JULY 19- 23

Sometimes camp can be a scary place but a lot of fun too.  This is the camp where the monsters and counselors get a little mixed up.  Maybe it's those strange things they have been eating.  Do you want to try some?  Take home a "monster keep out" sign and a "monster beware" keychain for your book bag.  Oh no!  The campers are looking a little gruesome in their zombie makeup.  We'll hunt rats and snakes.  Maybe Dracula is hiding a snack in the basement for later.

 

6. LOST ISLAND TREASURE- JULY 26-30

Everyone loves a good treasure hunt.  But this is going to be a challenge.  First you must join a group of pirates, come up with a catchy chant and cross the sea.  We'll make mosaic hands, a sunglass case and a pillow.  Test your skills with games like spongeball, filler-up and the floating bulls-eye.  Winners will share in the pirates treasure.  The losers may have to walk the plank!  Either way, you're getting wet.

 

7. DOUBLE DARE II- AUGUST 2-6

Back by popular demand, this is the camp you all have been waiting for.  time to get slimy, dirty and full of jello.  For fun, we can make a fuseboard, sand bottles and grouted pots.  Take home  your own little challenge, a marble house.  Who can put on a frozen t-shirt the fastest or pass the most water in a sponge?  Friday will be your chance to cheer on the counselors in a Double Dare competition designed by YOU!  How about a little pie throwing or pancake catching?  this is bound to be one of  the funniest weeks of camp!
