Wednesday June 30th (3rd day of Family Camp)


Swimming

Getting ready for W.H.A.T (Will, Heart, Attitude, Tenacity)
It's a team game that takes several teams and whittles them down to a winner.
This first game has Sophie, Cousin 8yo and both our family helpers on a team.
Christian, Tom, Cousin 14yo and Rebecca's brother were on another team.

Game #1, use blocks to toss as stepping stones to get to the other side.
Then, all team members must be on the stand as you sling-shot down 2 tiles with your team name on them.
Our family helper was shooting for the girls, but they got out on the first game.

Game #2 has all team members holding on to an object that is ropes tied together with 4 balls on it.  Each member must touch at least one ball as it's being tossed out to a stand in the water. 

Game #3 had you with bungee cords strung together to pick up buckets (no hands touch bucket! but feet to tip the bucket back up if it knocks over) and take them to the other side to form a pyramid.  The guys got out on this game.  There were 2 more games but I didn't bother taking pictures of those. LOL
W.H.A.T games are different each  year.

Swimming

Each family gets a 30min speedboat ride!!  It's sooo fun!!!  You can, if you want, have a tube out the back to ride on or even skis.  We all stayed in the boat this year.

Wednesday's event is DATE NIGHT!!!!!  The adults have a NICE dinner without kids.  They have the kids for 4 hours while we eat and do whatever.  This year we took a walk with bro and sil and played a game till it was time to get the kids.  It was so fun!!

While we were at dinner the youth were playing a FUNNY game.  They grouped into teams.  They had a list of funny pictures they had to take of their group.  We happened to be walking by when Christian and cousin's group were taking a picture in a port-a-potty!!!!!!

The younger kids took a hay ride.  This was the older boys' wagon.  We didn't see the girl wagon.
