Camp Champions Blog

Sometimes, camp slightly modifies priorities.

This week is such a wild ride. It has more activities. The days start earlier and end later.

On Sunday night, we had our second Vespers. On the boys side, I shared my Warrior-Worrier story.  I have included that story as a separate blog today: http://blog.campchampions.com/our-warrior-vs-our-worrier.

We had our second Trojan-Spartan games today. I am sure that the photos will show tons of campers smiling, running, throwing and rowing.  I would like to share one of my favorite Trojan-Spartan traditions and give you a report on how well it went.

Please allow me a personal note.

Today, I will attempt to share an activity from the girls side: Miss Champini.  I did not see it myself, but Susie Ma’am told me enough to describe it to you. I wish I had been there.

This summer, we have introduced a new special evening event for the oldest campers (those finishing 7^th and 8^th grade).  We do not yet have a fun name for these gatherings, but this is OK because they are a surprise when they happen.  Internally, we call them “disruptive moments”. 

My lovely bride encourages the hopeless romantic in me, including my own camp memories.  I had a particularly powerful memory today that I would like to share with you.

Today, the oldest Senior Campers practiced collaboration.

In a world of constant innovation, creativity is becoming more important in the modern age.
