Wow!!! What a way to start Camp at the Woods' 27th Season!!! After 9 inches of rain, trees shattered by lightning and other dramatic events all around, we finally welcomed our first group of campers (a day late on Monday, the 9th). Despite all the water, rain and challenges, however, the spirits of our campers weren't dampened one bit!!!
In fact, several of our groups stepped up and won the OWL of the DAY Award, giving them elevator privileges, and allowing them to watch movies and to sleep in the air conditioned lounge. I think the highlight, though, was when Dance won "FRED" (the owl) and proceeded to dress him up in a build-a-bear bikini--only to have the gang from Adventure 2 win the next day and "man-up" Fred with a mohawk!
More drama with Fred was seen on Wednesday when Fred was kidnapped and then returned with a threatening note, which was f0llowed by the disappearance of our Director, John. After being gone for several hours, John was finally found on the Bridge, tied and gagged, by our fearless dancers--who proceeded to put on a fantastic show just two days later!!!
On the Equine front, the campers also did a fantastic job and had a terrific show in the morning but were rained out (and LIGHTNINGED out) in the afternoon. Nonetheless, a good time was had by all, and today marked the beginning of yet another new week of adventures!!!
