C-O-N-N-E-C-T

Today, all of Camp went against all the rules and participated in CONNECT!! For those who don’t know what Connect is, it’s a day where YOUR campers decide what activities they want to participate in for the day. Senior Counselor Mack H. Had a little bit more to say about Connect..

“A special opportunity that Huawni Campers are given is the ability to decide which activities they will partake in during morning and afternoon activity periods. By enabling campers to choose how they will spend their day, we’re giving them the freedom to do whatever activities they want, and the responsibility to decide together what all they want to do as a cabin. They’re deepening their friendships with one another as they work together to do something the whole cabin wants to do. The activities nurture a love for the outdoors- they’re spending their time at the Critter Pond, at the High Ropes Course, and all across camp!

While they’re growing closer to the outdoors and to each other, they are inevitably getting to know more of their true selves.

Connect fosters life long memories- campers are getting to hang out with their cabin, but also with all of camp. While they’re growing closer to the outdoors and to each other, they are inevitably getting to know more of their true selves.” -Mack H.

After a day full of activities, we hosted the famous, famous, MOST FAMOUS Talent Show. Campers set aside their fears and took on the stage tonight to show off their talents. Some of tonight’s awesome talents included:

*Ben M. showing off his drum line skills
*Sisters Mary Blair & Ruthie M. practicing their complex, secret handshake
*Madeline O. dazzling the crowd with her ukulele and singing skills
*Cooper C. Performing an awesome dance routine to Church Clap
*Laurel O. & Cate M. singing a favorite from the Greatest Showman
*Rex P. Playing guitar AND singing for the crowd!
*Grace M. rocking her solo singing.
*Helen B. crushing her hoola hoop routine
*Avery D. with her hilarious Miranda Sings impersonation.
*Donovan H. shredding it on the guitar

And that’s just to name a few. So many of our campers went on stage & shared their talents with all of camp tonight, & we are SO proud of them!
