It is more like a costumed group exercise/silliness class.   Susie Ma’am came as a piece of candy corn for Halloween. Dodger Ma’am (our camp basset hound) was an elf. ![Susie and Dodger holiday.jpg](https://blog.campchampions.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Susie%20and%20Dodger%20holiday.jpg?width=800&height=1066&name=Susie%20and%20Dodger%20holiday.jpg)  Lola Ma’am (our camp baby) appreciates the patriotic Harlow Ma’am.  ![Lola and Harlow.jpg](https://blog.campchampions.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Lola%20and%20Harlow.jpg?width=800&height=1066&name=Lola%20and%20Harlow.jpg) Here, a counselor celebrating Mother’s Day is dancing with his entire cabin.  ![Liam with BU at Dance.jpg](https://blog.campchampions.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Liam%20with%20BU%20at%20Dance.jpg?width=800&height=600&name=Liam%20with%20BU%20at%20Dance.jpg) It has been a grand day. We learned that the Trojan-Spartan games resulting in the first ever tie. After three separate competitions with almost 250 games, the result was an unexpected 131-131. Since we have no precedent for such an outcome, we are debating the best resolution. Some are suggestion a “Moo Off” where the leaders of the two teams attempt to moo longer than each other.   I believe this is how the Spanish American War was resolved, though I am not completely clear.   As I conclude on this historic note, I find myself amazed that we are down to our last few nights. I know that it has seemed like a lifetime for you at home, but time has been racing here. We just need to appreciate every remaining hour.   Steve Sir ### Subscribe to Email Updates ### Recent Posts ### Posts by Topic - [General (221)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/general) - [Parents (103)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/parents) - [Camper (86)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/camper) - [Counselor (73)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/counselor) - [Alumni (48)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/alumni) - [Summer Camp (20)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/summer-camp) - [Campers (10)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/campers) - [Yearbooks (10)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/yearbooks) - [success (10)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/success) - [growth (9)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/growth) - [camp (8)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/camp) - [21st century skills (6)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/21st-century-skills) - [digital anxiety (6)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/digital-anxiety) - [parenting (6)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/parenting) - [skills (6)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/skills) - [social media (6)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/social-media) - [Counselor Training (5)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/counselor-training) - [cell phones (5)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/cell-phones) - [independence (5)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/independence) - [Counselors (3)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/counselors) - [confidence (3)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/confidence) - [Goofy (2)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/goofy) - [Off Season (2)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/off-season) - [homesick and happy (2)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/homesick-and-happy) - [memories (2)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/memories) - [Scholarship Fund (1)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/scholarship-fund) - [camperships (1)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/camperships) - [donations (1)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/donations) - [golden oldie (1)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/golden-oldie) - [scholarships (1)](https://blog.campchampions.com/topic/scholarships) [see all](https://blog.campchampions.com/holiday-hoopla-dance#) ![Steve Baskin](https://blog.campchampions.com/hubfs/Campchampions%20February2018/image/steve-baskin_small.jpg) ## steve baskin The Camp Geek [steveb@campchampions.com](mailto:steveb@campchampions.com) ![Susie Baskin](https://blog.campchampions.com/hubfs/Campchampions%20February2018/image/susie-baskin_small.jpg) ## susie baskin The Camp Mom [susieb@campchampions.com](mailto:susieb@campchampions.com) Camp Champions 775 Camp Road, Marble Falls, TX 78654 p: [(830) 598-2571](tel:1-830-598-2571) f: [(830) 598-1095](tel:1-830-598-1095) [info@campchampions.com](mailto:info@campchampions.com) © Camp Champions 2018
