Manic Monday

Hello Parents, Family, and Friends,


It was a warm day at Camp Hickory Hill, but that didn’t stop the campers from having fun and being active! Today’s camp schedule was filled with many educational and fun activities. This morning we had a special arts and crafts activity with Boone Electrical Co-op who visited and helped the campers make lamps out of spare parts. Throughout the day the campers split into their cabin groups and participated in archery, swimming, flying squirrel, and yoga.


And… I would have to say that the highlight of the day would have to be the all camp mud pit! The campers, CIT’s, and staff participated in one on one gladiator style mud pit fights. The queen of the mud pit, hands down, was McKenzie who got up on the log and fell into the mud pit more than any other camper. You go girl! The campers were very dirty by the end, but don’t worry, we made them take showers and they are now at least partially clean!


Once again night as fallen on Camp Hickory Hill and the stars are shining brightly in the sky. The campers have taken their meds, said their goodnights, and are now fast asleep in their cozy cabins. The sun will come up soon and another fun filled day at Camp Hickory Hill will begin.


Thank you and Goodnight,



Amber – Camp Hickory Hill Staff
