Shaver Squad 2021

Shaver Squad 2021

Our Shaver Watersports campers (AKA "Shaver Squad") headed to Shaver Lake this morning and are already out on the lake enjoying hours of water skiing, wake boarding, and kneeboarding! The Shaver Squad will spend the next four days at our Shaver Island outpost camp. They'll head back to main camp on Thursday afternoon and join the Mini Camp campers for Big Campfire (skit night) on Thursday and our end of camp celebrations on Friday - our Banquet, Dance, and Appreciation Campfire.

Today’s Friendship Skill: Introduce Yourself!

Today’s Friendship Skill: Introduce Yourself!

Today at Camper Orientation, we reviewed the important friendship skill (especially when you're at a new place!) of introducing yourself to others. Campers practiced introducing themselves to a camper in another cabin group (since they already met everyone in their own cabin group yesterday) and then introducing their new friend to one of the friends they've already made in their own cabin group. As a camp, we set the goal of introducing ourselves to three new people today. We're already making friends here at GAC!
