This summer was the first summer I went to summer camp, yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So I have to tell you all about my week at summer camp. Booo, I mean yay!!! So first of all let me get this strait, it was only five days and not a whole week, boo!!! But it was fun, and super awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I went to a little summer camp up by the Ozarks, in a town named Siloam Springs. This camp is a religious camp that my mom and her sister went to when they were kids and my aunt was also a counselor there in collage. I went with a big group from our church, and all the 5th and 6th grade girls were in a bunkhouse together. The bunkhouse was basicly a big air conditioned room with a bunch of bunkbeds they can house 24 people!!! We had about 15-16 girls and 2 adult leaders from our church, we also had a counselor from camp sleeping with us. On the bus ride up all the kids and adults from our church took up 2 whole buses!!! The ride up was about 3-4 hours long each way with a break for lunch and bathroom in the middle. the boys stopped before lunch both times and went to the bathroom in the woods, why did they have to do that???On the first night we got there in time for dinner in the dinning hall, witch is at least 50 years old, and has two trees growing inside the building. One is in the dining area and the other is in the kitchen but the health inspectors don’t like that and they have to replace it, booo!!!! But it was cool to get to come before they replace it. This year the thyme was light runners, and it was kind of like star wars. I was on the red team for color wars and that night we had the first game, there was a crobster hunt, we had a redish bean and we had to take it across camp without being caught by one of the leaders, if you got caught by a leader they took your bean and sometimes let you have it back if you did a silly thing they told you to do. I had to sing let it go in my best opera voice, follow a flashlight and then stand in it while getting sprayed by someone with a watergun on a platform in a tree, hop to a tree and back on one foot and do other various things. and if you found a crobster you got bonus points. I couldn’t see the map because in needed a new perscription as I now know, so I was basicly wandering around in the darkness following the sea of people and flashlights, it was still a ton of fun though. The first two meals I had at camp were discusting because I axedentuly got something spicy the first night and had cearyal with cows milk for my first breakfeast. The teaching was really amazing, he was very pasionate. Well the red team won and my subteam won the subteam thing so that is the hilight of my week at summer camp!!!
