Pre-Camp Day Two.

The second day of Pre-Camp was the first full day of camp. We had a lot of fun getting to know each other and getting to know Camp Gailor-Maxon. 


Introductions in the chapel - 

Singing songs in the chapel - 


After we had chapel time we drove over to Sewanee to spend time at All Saints Chapel:




We played on the playground, toured the chapel, and hung out in the Quad before lunch. After lunch we had siesta (spelled Q-U-I-E-T) and then afternoon activities. One of our activities was "Science Experiment" with the Diet Cokes and Mentos experiment. The kids loved it - 




We also made sock puppets in the art barn - 





Then we went to the pool for some free swim time - 




Then it was dinner time! 

After dinner we had a treasure hunt. The kids went in family groups and travelled to six different activities where they had an objective to complete before they could get a piece of their treasure map puzzle. 


Here they are doing the egg roll:

Costume Relay:
 Balloon Toss:
 Angry Birds:

Boys figuring out where their treasure is, using the map:



Then we had a bonfire:








And for a sneak into the life of the counselors - after the kids went to bed, the counselors went to the hiddee hole and had a little jam session. 




Until next time!
