Session 5 B - The Chocolate Game

Dear Camp Families,

It is hard to believe that we will be returning your children to you in less than 24 hours.  People often ask if I am happy when camp is over, I not happy it is over, only happy the responsibility is over.

The weather is holding for us and the heat has finally cooled off!  We continue to ride every morning and we have been sending groups out with their lesson groups to learn about how to trail ride and the safety of it.  Yesterday afternoon we practiced our specialties for your parent’s exhibition tomorrow!  We had a lot of drivers, vaulters, some are doing courses, and others are pair jumping.  You will be entertained at the least!   

Last night we played the Chocolate Game!  There are pictures on Facebook with a description of how the game is played!  Here is a brief description:  Last night we played the Chocolate Game before going on a counselor quest! You have 2 dice, if you roll doubles, you put the socks on your hands and you have to cut the chocolate and eat as much as you can. When someone else rolls doubles, it is their turn to put the socks on and eat chocolate.  Here is the link if you want it - https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10154174922979251.1073741919.207395374250&type=3

This morning we had our final lessons!  This afternoon we are packing, writing our candle lights, cleaning tack, and swimming if there is time and the weather is cooperating!  Tonight  we have our Candle Light Ceremony.  It is a closing reflection of  the camper’s time here!  

I truly can’t believe this session is almost over!  I am really looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow and talking to you about your wonderful children!

Best,

Becky
