What a Sunday! The sun was shining, the breeze was warm and it was time for another Super Sunday. Lower camp headed down to the Ivy Bowl for a wet-n-wild game of slip-n-slide kickball. A giant slip-n-slide between the bases made for a fun afternoon in the water.
The guys in middle camp headed across Cass Lake to the giant sandbar of Cedar Island for a day at the beach. Pictures to follow, but suffice to say the boys spent all afternoon swimming and splashing around the sandbar.
As our last Canadian canoe trip prepares to head out on Wednesday, the campers from Muir and 3M cabins spent yesterday afternoon paddling to Pike Hole for a prep trip. It won't be too long before their canoes hit the Canadian waters of Pickerel Lake. 7 days later, we'll welcome them back to camp having earned their first tam, the Dress Gordon.
A few of the highlights from the last few days include a mad dash to the ChipPong table (Chippewa's 4-sided table tennis table), first time camper Philip C. shooting high target during the Rilfery Tournament topping longtime camper Henry B., Muir earning the top notch as Honor Cabin this week dethroning Kamaji Cabin, the return of Demonia cabin from Hook Island with tales of giant walleye. Congrats to Isaac T. and Luka L. who landed some monsters up there.
Tomorrow we bid a fond farewell to the 2-week campers, but not before tonight's Black Tie Dinner in their honor. Among those departing are one of our youngest campers, Luke B., who shared a wonderful highlight from his trip to Star Island. Was it the smores? Or the hike to Lake Windigo? Or silly stories in the tent? Well, I'm sure those were some of them, but his real highlight as he shared with camp was the "long sunset over the beach." I think I can relate. That's camping!
