Whimsical Wednesday (Younger Sibling)

| June 27, 2019

Wednesdays only mean one thing here at the Indian Summer Camp. Poop Day! Those who are familiar with this holiday know we take it very seriously. We woke up prepared with poop day buttons on deck for any and every camper who celebrated the occasion. We wear our poop emoji buttons with pride along with many others we have collected throughout the week.

We had a great start to the morning with 50 Polar Bear swimmers taking the plunge. For breakfast, we ate waffles, sausage, bacon and cereal! After our campers were full and fueled for the day, they headed off for cabin choice. We had so much fun participating in fishing, boating, crafts and archery. With new fishing records and archery tag high scores, we are excited to see what the rest of the week has in store.

Lunch was provided by Taco Bell, donated by Yum Brands! Our hungry kiddos enjoyed a lunch of tacos, burritos and cinnamon twist. The meal did not disappoint! After lunch, our campers took turns swimming and doing more art and crafts. During this time, we had Snowhat Snowballs come out to serve shaved ice to everyone. Our campers loved the unique flavors like rainbow and tigers blood. We also spent our afternoon putting rubber bands on a watermelon in hopes that it would explode.  The watermelon exploded after we put over 400 rubber bands on it.  

For dinner, we enjoyed baked spaghetti, broccoli and breadsticks. Of course, our famous grilled cheese station is always in service. After dinner, our campers learned how to make homemade ice cream with sugar, vanilla, half- &-half, and salt. They used cookies, sprinkles, and more to mix up their own flavors & sundaes. It was a blast!

We ended the night by having a camp wide water balloon and shaving cream extravaganza. Our kids had so much fun running around and getting messy. After we hosed the campers off it was time for bed. Tomorrow morning is sleep in day and we cannot wait. Our week has been amazing so far and we are looking forward to a few more days of making memories and friendships.

Goodnight from Indian Summer Camp.
