Painting pet rocks in Arts & Crafts

2019 Overnight Camp: Session 4 – Part 3

The end of summer is looming but we’re doing our best to stay in denial and squeeze as much fun out of our remaining time at camp as we can.

There’s lots of music in the air all over the camp; take a walk and you’re sure to run into someone carrying an instrument case. We’ve practiced teamwork and problem-solving on the ropes course, expressed our creativity with pet rock painting and basket weaving, and got plenty of activity and sunshine playing soccer and archery. We even tried our hands at pickle-making! And Monday night’s “Wrath of Nature” evening activity brought us some creative and creepy costumes from counselors and staff along with lots of fun.

Enjoy a few highlights below and check out the full album on SmugMug.
