3 Day Camp 2013

As we are beginning this week of Traditional camp, we are already missing many of our 3-Day campers!  We were blessed with a fantastic three days filled with great activities, cooperating weather (mostly!), and a terrific crew of kids. 

While we were only together for a short time, we packed in plenty of great activities for the campers.  Highlights included making s'mores over the campfire, getting up on horseback (many for the very first time), and exhaustive hunts for the numerous unicorns and fairies currently residing at the ranch!

In addition to the scheduled morning activities (Archery, Faith Building, Nature Camp Craft, Tennis, Horses, Canoeing, Science, Explore, Arts & Crafts, and Sportsfield), campers signed up for a wide variety of special afternoon activities that were created by our staff.  These were opportunities for our campers and counselors to get to know each other on a more personal level as they participated in these often silly and creative times together later in the day.

Friday, however, was easily the craziest day of the week!  Themed "2x2 Day," counselors did their best to represent Noah's Ark.  We were ready to greet the campers in the morning decked out as raindrops, cardboard representations of the ark, and a few too many elephants and cats!  We were so excited to see that many campers also joined in the Friday costume fun, which is always encouraged. 

 

Special Friday activities included a camp-wide scavenger hunt, animal call telephone, fishes and whales, and other animal activities related to Noah's ark.

As we say goodbye to the 3-Day campers, and already miss them at HPR, we want to say THANK YOU for bringing your awesome kids to camp.  We enjoyed every bit of their time here and hope to see them again next year!
