another week over?

Week 8 came and went. Sacajawea Olympic week was really successful. Volleyball camp was led by our new sports camp volleyball specialist Takihara and the girls really got into the game. Maybe you'll be seeing some of our volleyball girls in the Olympics competing for Team USA some day! Gary Auerbach of the Spinning Bees came in and spent all day Thursday with us. He had a session with each unit of campers and taught them all some freestyle frisbee tricks. He even treated us to a unique show at the Thursday night campfire.

Our counselors continued their camp training on Tuesday with a visit from Steve Maguire. After our 3 hour session with him everyone was feeling renewed about finishing out the summer with just as much vigor that we started with. He taught us some new games and techniques that the girls and boys will be able to enjoy the rest of this summer and of course summers to come.

Thursday night dinner was also really exciting because we got to each Chinese food in honor of the summer games in Beijing. The girls really enjoyed the food and we especially enjoyed the leftovers we got to pack into our lunches for the next morning :)

Finally our camp event was also a success. The campers and counselors competed in the Sacajawea Olympics and receiving the gold medal was Eagles Nest, the silver went to Smoke Rise and the bronze went to Indian Pipes. Congratulations on a job well done! See you next week :)
