DAY ONE.

Today began our intense foray into the summer, and let me tell you, folks, Camp Arrowhead started strong. At 9:00 AM all the campers rolled in and we got to work being awesome.

We started with opening circle, where we had all the campers introduce themselves and sang a few songs. Next came groups! In Active Games, we played both regular bowling and HUMAN BOWLING (where the volunteers serve as the pins!). In ADL, everybody made bird feeders (let's hope that a lot of birds show up in all the campers' front yards!). And since our lodge is pretty empty, since we've onl;y just begun the summer, in Arts and Crafts we made art installation pieces! It was definitely a great start to the day.

After groups, we had a quick lunch and volunteer break and then an extended swim! That's right, almost two hours in the water, which was awesome because it was so darn hot outside! We swam, splashed, and made sand castles on the beach. To end the day, we sang some songs in closing circle. We can't wait for Day Two!!!
