Juniors campers love Qwanoes! “I’d rather spend one day at Qwanoes than a whole week at Disney World” said one of our 2010 Juniors campers.
There is nothing quite like seeing the face of a young camper light up when you announce that there will be a night game tonight! Last night the campers came together in Q-Town and were rallied together by their team leaders and Greylock as it was time to jump into a late night adventure! What a night as campers scoured the camp on the hunt for tablets and the missing crown, all the while evading capture by the viking protectors. It was a night to remember, and memories that will last a lifetime!
Right now it’s activity time at Qwanoes and campers are in the trees, down in the water and what do my ears hear? Oh it’s Club Coco of course! I hear the sounds of campers yelling 1-2-3!! And the Battle Tops head into the arena for a battle to see which top will be left standing! I just asked Harry, Stuart,Ethan what they thought of the new game as they played with one of our Camp Grandpas, and they all said “AWESOME!!!”There are so many activities to do at Qwanoes… it’s a good thing camp is 6 nights and 7 days long!
We had a big surprise at Qwanoes the other day as some very special guests rolled into camp. It was the African Children’s Choir! We were so glad that they could make a special stop at camp. We of course had to welcome them like we do all our campers! With fireworks and an arch of raised hands as they came off the bus! Many of them had never seen a camp like Qwanoes before, so it was such a joy to see them playing soccer, enjoying a good game of dodge ball and checking out the waterfront. At Tuck time they got into their special African dress and did an amazing performance for all our Juniors Campers right on the qrok deck! What a sight to see all these kids dancing, drumming and singing in their native African language. All our campers were mesmerized and enjoyed Tuck time with a very unique and special show that was just for them! Thanks African Children’s Choir for visiting on your way through! I will never forget the little African boy by Club Coco singing “Oh, oh, oh on the island”!
Amongst all the excitement and fun at camp, there is some pretty awesome life changes that are happening in the lives of our campers! Yesterday we learnt how Out Of This World God really is, but at the same time he still wants to have a personal relationship with us! Now that’s Out Of This World!
Two more days of Juniors Camp left, it’s going to be awesome! And then we will soon be welcoming Juniors Camp #2!
