Thursday Halloween

The rainy day weather did not put a damper on the campers attitude. The rain brought in lots of campers to the Arts and Crafts Room. It was an exciting place with shirt tie dying and pottery glazing. Sunshine Cabin had a great time making a giant yellow and black hot air balloon. Weather permitting there will be a balloon launched tomorrow. Campers had their last opportunity on the Climbing Wall and Zip Line. They were thrilled to have met the challenge.

At snack today there was a Halloween Costume Contest. It was a difficult decision for the judges but after extensive deliberations Sunshine Cabin was selected. The campers then went to their cabins to decorate the front room of each cabin in preparation for the trick or treaters. The campers then went trick or treating at each cabin to collect their candy and see the haunted cabins.





Vespers followed dinner, being forced indoors due to rain. The campers and counselors had lots of fun singing songs and a special selection performed by Frontier Cabin.

The final event for today was the All Camp Halloween Dance. The campers got dressed up and boogied to the tunes of Michael Jackson, Beach Boys, Abba and many other performers. The dance was an excellent way to wrap up a week of friendship, fun, excitement, participation, and sharing time with each other.

This will be the last blog for Camp Freedom. We truly hope that our Associate Campers have enjoyed our daily activity updates and pictures. Associate Campers, please share the Blog and pictures with your camper when they return home. It has been a true pleasure having your campers at camp this year. Thank you for allowing us the pleasure of their company and we look forward to seeing them next year. Enjoy the rest of the summer.
