Camp Journal - Ardeche, France

Breakfast brought goodbyes all too soon as two campers prepared to leave already ...

The French groups organized for their final lesson and worksheets. All morning oral tests and vocabulary sheets were completed. Team activity games, Beret and Mission Impossible IV, took the intellectuals all over campus as the morning came to an end.

Activity groups participated in their last bandana session. They chose Sports and Arts & Crafts for their interests. Clay art decorated tables on the terrace until lunch. The molded art had a strange resemblance to camp activities. The display of creativity was endless! Sports dove into competition with Ultimate Frisbee, Meatball & Spaghetti, Gaga Ball and the team challenge game: Water Leak. They tromped to lunch a bit soggy after a productive demonstration of team work. The last lunch of session was served as counsellors began to motivate campers to enjoy the afternoon with their activity of choice. Kids could be found all over camp playing cricket,  ping pong, guitar and making snoopies.

The feat of packing was tackled just before dinner. The camp sat down to a delicious summer BBQ for their final meal together. The evening brought bandana ceremonies and certificates. A slide show followed showing all the moments shared these past two weeks.

Thank you for a wonderful session one in the Ardeche!
