Overnight Camp 3 - Day 1

Hello Families and Friends of Camp Amicus, 

Well as you all heard we made it to Goldeye safe and sound. Lunch was delicious and enjoyed by all. After lunch we went on a camp tour and got to know one another a little bit better. Campers then got their luggage and settled into their cabins. We got lucky and the sun came out for us this afternoon so we decided it would be a good idea to hit the lake since it had warmed up. After our quick swim we started our first rotation of activities, half our group did the first social skills lesson about communication, while the other half made some very creative name tags and played name games!
We certainly worked up an appetite so we took a break to enjoy a very yummy BBQ dinner with hotdogs and hamburgers. After dinner we went for a great nature walk around the Goldeye Lake that we all really liked. Next we played our first camp wide game of Manhunt, a very fun and fast paced game that everyone really got into! To wind up our night we headed to the campfire, where we had a visit from Max of Where the Wild Things Are to introduce our theme this week. It has been so great to watch campers already starting to bond with each other and feel comfortable at camp, we are all really looking forward to an amazing week together! Tomorrow brings many more games, exciting activities and tie-dye!

Photos to come later tonight or first thing in the morning!
