Thursday at Camp Heart Connection

Breakfast today was delicious, again, and we had huge cinnamon rolls and cheese omelets. The kitchen crew has done an awesome job of keeping all of the campers and staff well-fed this week.

There was a hike at 11:00 a.m. A few campers and counselors met at the stage and headed into the woods for a hike around camp. A few hours later there was creek stomping and the boys headed to "Mortimer's Boys Only NASCAR Party" where they made "slime" and had a few afternoon snacks. A lot of TP'ing happened this afternoon with the help of the Programs Staff.

Throughout the day the photography crew from Capturing Hope was at Camp and they took photos of all of the campers. They were great to work with and we can't wait for the parents to see the photos!

Eight teams played in the annual basketball tournament. While it was a hot day for the tournament, all of the players had a good time and the top teams even got medals! (Rumor has it that the boys from Riverside cabin won the tournament.)

After the tournament almost everyone swam in the pool. The sun was shining and it was hot - perfect pool weather! The little ones jumped in and out of the pool, there were numerous water fights and the older campers enjoyed going down the water slide.

After dinner the campers got ready for the "All Camp Dance." The ladies had their hair and make-up done, and the guys put on their best t-shirts for the event. The All Camp Dance is a place for all of the campers to come together and bust a move. Thanks to "Cubbie Bear" from Select Entertainment for DJ'ing the dance. He sure played the right tunes to get everyone on the dance floor! Everyone is going to be tired by the end of this night as today was busy, busy, busy.

Here are a few photos to take a look at:
