Dear Parents,
A slight drizzle greeted campers when the buses pulled into camp, but soon that had dissipated and we had mostly pleasant weather the rest of the day. We started by getting campers checked into their tents. They took a little tour of the living area and learned where to find everything while at their "home away from home" for the next few days. We then gathered in the main hall to go over the important camp safety rules, check in with the camp nurse and have snack. We then jumped right into activities. Teams followed this schedule.
Red Team: Check in/rules, Tie Dye, lunch, zip line, wide game
Blue Team: Check in/rules, rock climbing, lunch, tie dye, wide game
Green Team: Check in/rules, Ecology, lunch, rock climbing, wide game
Yellow Team: Check in/rules, zip line, lunch, archery, wide game
Orange Team: Check in/rules, archery, lunch, river tracing, wide game
Right now, campers are desperately waiting for me to open the second round of food. After dinner, campers write about their day in the camp journal before we begin our evening program. Tonight's evening program is the opening campfire. We will sing songs, play games, and, of course, roast marshmallows for S'mores.
Goodbye from Camp Taiwan
