Big Campfire
"Big Campfire" is a highlight of the session for campers here at GAC. At Big Campfire, each cabin group performs a skit, song, or dance. The evening provides a fun opportunity for kids to work together to provide a fun, entertaining performance for the community. Our younger campers (Bears & Tigers) celebrated Big Campfire on Saturday evening, and our older kids (Lions & Eagles) had their Big Campfire on Monday evening. Here are a few highlights from this session's Big Campfires:
Meet Comet & Kinder, Rocks & Ropes Program Heads
Gold Arrow Camp's robust climbing programs include team building, high ropes course, vertical playpen, zipline, giant's ladder, and rock climbing (on our natural granite rock course). Kinder and Comet are heading up our ropes and rocks team this year!
Whadda Week!
Session 3 campers have had a super spirited, fun session so far. The singing has been loud and the dancing ubiquitous! We are also doing a whole lot of bucket filling. A highlight of the first week of Session 3 was celebrating Camp Kindness Day.
One of our favorite ways to fill each other's buckets has been writing WOWs. Each morning at assembly, Cheerio reads a few of the WOWs from the previous day, and then all of the notes are delivered in the camp mail. WOWs are a fun camp tradition that reminds us to thank, compliment, and celebrate each other. On Camp Kindness Day (July 23, 2019), campers and staff wrote a record-setting 232 WOWs!
