Nothing Up My Sleeve - Presto!

Breakfast club started off with a big game of King Of The Chairs.  For those of you who haven't had the chance to play a couple of rounds of King Of The Chairs, the rules are somewhat simple.  There's a line of chairs, five or so, and the kids line up on each of the chairs with the first person in line competing with the person sitting in the chair.  The person in the chair and the next person in line do a round of Rock, Paper, & Scissors.  You can stay in the chair as long as you win that round of the game. If you lose, the next person becomes the king and the process goes on.  Our teachers, Sue, Carolyn and Larry the Worm helped us learn through the story of David that we shouldn't judge people on the outside but instead look at their heart.


It was  a great day at the fishing  hole today.  The weather was good and the fish were biting. Each of the campers were able to catch at least one fish.  Many of the campers caught more than one fish with the record  being one held by a girl camper who caught seven.






More importantly it is a time for the counselors and campers
to sit in the beauty of nature, the warmth of the sunshine, and talk.  The campers will enjoy eating the fish tomorrow.

 

 


                                                   

The evening was capped off with a magic and ventriloquist show given to us by Great Scott.  Great Scott taught us about David who as a child had a faith that changed a nation.  He definitely made us laugh and learn along the way.  He will teach all the campers a magic trick in the morning.
