Session 2 Last Day

Today was the last day for the 2nd sessioners. They had gotten their stuff packed up the night before. All was normal up until after breakfast when parents started to arrive to gather their children. Congratulations to campers of the year Hannah and Ethan. See each and everyone of you next year! 

Session 2 DAY 6!!!!

Today was the last full day here at Camp Hickory Hill but it surely was the busiest day out here. First we had an exciting C.I.T SAFARI!! Each cabin was given a list of all of the animals they had to find. The C.I.Ts and the C.I.T Director dress up as the animals and hide about the camp.

After that we had cabin competitions with water balloon tosses and trying to catch the water balloons! It was so fun and cooling. 
Then we had skit prep and skit performances! Afterwards we did the cabin awards and then dance prep. The dance was super fun! 

Later on we finished up the night with they last campfire and see you next years.

Session 2 Day 5!!

Today was a wonderful sunny day here at CHH! We started off by having the zip line and the multipurpose court! Some campers confronted their fears of the zip line and had so much fun!! 

After snack we had a cool and refreshing swim period. Everyone was out in the water, splashing, giggling and attacking C.I.Ts (councilors in training). 

Then we had cool firefighters come out and let the campers play games with the hoses. Every body was soaked!

Later on after snack we had a kenpo sensei come out and teach a beginners class for the campers. All of them really got into it and were excited sensei stayed for dinner! 

Finally the evening activity was MUD PIT!!!!!!!! Everyone is dirty and icky and look like creatures from a swamp! Shower time!! 

Session 2 DAY 4!!!

Today at camp was amazing! We got to do some flying squirrel and some football! Some campers have never done the flying squirrel before and they loved it so much!! 

After snack we all gathered at the pool so the kids could learn how to kayak! They loved that too since it was so hot out today. After a tasty lunch they got to go either swimming or repelling. All the kids had great fun at both activities! Either cooling of in the pool or repelling off a cool cliff by a nifty cave!

We also had cross fit guys come out and they showed us some great work out stuff like squats! After dinner it started to rain and we made the evening activity movie night featuring the Goonies!!! DUHN DUHN DUHN!!!!!
