Summer Camp England

5th July 2015

York Excursion!

Although Sunday is known as lazy day and a chance for our campers to catch their breath and prepare for another action packed week, it was far from lazy. Like Saturday, we had a later wake up which was greatly appreciated by all our campers and counsellors. After breakfast, the campers had a choice of using the playground or catching an extra nap in their rooms. The campers also had a competition to clean their rooms, the cleanest room would get a prize. Later on after lunch the colour groups went to the beautiful city of York.

The yellows had to find the lost teddy bear of Sameena and Steffen (yellow coulor leaders) by participating in challenges like high fiving specific counsellors or using the telephone booth to call Steffen to get clues.

The reds had a photo challenge, they had to find certain places and take crazy picture with that place.

And finally the Blues had an amazing race which is like a treasure hunt.

The highlight of the day for many was the brilliant Talent night held in our wonderful theatre space. The Talent at Village Camps York is always an amazing evening. The entertainment numbers were diverse. We had rap, singing, dancing, piano playing, guitar playing and many others! A really enjoyable and memorable night was had by all. At the end our Camp Director Joe reminded everyone about the importance of getting enough sleep in anticipation of our action packed week ahead.
