Session Two Begins!

 Smiles are plentiful here at Camp as Session Two gets into full swing! We are very happy to have so many new campers, as well as see all the returners - everybody is having a wonderful time making new friends!

Last night, due to the weather, we had our opening campfire in the Mess Hall, which was a lot of fun. Each cabin group got up on stage to introduce themselves then sing a song or do a dance! The fire was roaring in the fireplace and we all kept nice and warm busting moves to the music!

Today is Adventure Day!! We started out the morning with "Moment to Own It" - a daily activity where cabin groups compete in fun & goofy games with names like 'Noodlin' Around' and 'Shoe Fly'. The Moment to Own It game for today was a relay race - each team had to get a balloon from the start to finish, without touching it and using a squirt gun! 

We then went on a long hike and along the way collected rocks, which we decorated in arts and crafts. Another fun arts and crafts activity today was making our very own superhero emblems!

Most chose not to swim, since it's pretty chilly, but there were a few brave campers and counselors who  jumped in! The rest of camp enjoyed munching on popcorn while watching a movie, doing aerobics and working in arts and crafts!

Tonight is the dance party and the costume closet is bustling with people picking outfits for tonight!! Stay tuned for more tomorrow!

70's Day!

 What a groovy day!

One of the day's highlights was doing tie-dye.. we tie-dyed so many beautiful, bright t-shirts!

The pool was open all day, since it was so hot, which was a big hit!

In Arts and Crafts, we also made hippie headbands (which we sewed flowers onto) and protest signs.

Our evening program was SO much fun. We started out in the garden, where we did face painting and made drums

 Then began our protest! We marched up to the pool, all holding signs about the issues we felt strongly about.. more pool time, less mosquitos, more hot cocoa etc!!! Once we were at the pool, we splatter-painted the pool shack (an artistic protest!), then sat and had a drum circle, played guitar and sang!

60's Day!

Welcome to the swingin' 60's! In arts and crafts, each cabin made boats, which we raced later in the evening at the pool party. We went on several hikes, played basketball and practised our twist and the mashed potato for the evening's party!

In the evening, we all headed to the pool to boogie to The Beatles, The Beach Boys etc. After racing the boats that we made across the pool, we had a limbo competition and then gathered around to watch a baking soda and vinegar volcano erupt!

The campers really enjoyed watching some of the counselors and staff having a 'surf competition' in the pool and counted to see how long they could stay on the surfboard without falling off!

After a LOT more dancing, to wind down for the evening, each cabin group lit tea light 'wish candles', made wishes and sent the candles floating across the pool. We sat for a while and enjoyed watching the candles drift across the water, then it was off to bed to dream about all the wishes we made.

50's Day!

50's day got off to a great start with Moment to Own it in the morning! Moment to Own it is Camp Krem's version of Minute to Win It - each cabin group competes in fun games and activities.

The day was busy and fun. We made chia pets in Arts and Crafts, played mini-golf, did mega bowling and played lots of parachute games! As well as, of course, plenty of dancing and hiking!

We also celebrated a very special birthday. Camp Krem's own Leon Wong had a birthday, so all the campers helped make and sign a birthday card for him.

Our night activity was a sock hop, with a special guest who came to DJ for us! We grooved the night away together, then headed to bed for a much needed rest!

Moment to Own It - start with a cookie on your forehead then get it into your mouth without using your hands!

Session One Begins!!

Sunday was so filled with joy as campers began arriving at Camp! We were all so happy to see old friends and meet new ones - the excitement was palpable!

The opening campfire was a tremendous amount of fun. Every cabin group took turns getting on stage to introduce themselves and every group had a song, skit or dance to perform!

Everybody went to bed in good spirits, tired from the exciting day and needing a good rest for the next busy day - 50's day, with a sock hop, bowling and much more!
