Summer Camp England
York Excursion!
Sunday is a really enjoyable day here at camp! We take the time to recover and relax after a busy week here at camp. After a later night than usual, kids had time to chill out with their friends, and above all clean their room! It is not often that we have time for ourselves in Village Camps. After this relaxing morning, the campers went on an excursion to York for lunch and took part in some cultural activities in this beautiful town! York is one of the highest rated tourist destinations in England thanks to its historic charm and its architecture.
Each colour group had a different activity. Yellows went to the key places of the city to take pictures with their counsellors and a teddy bear, while Reds had to form the letters of VC YORK with their bodies. The blue house were given something slightly different having to find their counsellors who were hidden throughout the city and collect clues as to how to be the first one to the finish line. Every game required some team spirit and allowed the kids to discover the best places of the city, The Minster, the Fudge Kitchen, the riverside and some other attractions. They then enjoyed some free time to go shopping before coming back to camp.
However the excitement did not stop there, with our annual and very much anticipated Talent Show! For the past few days our counsellors have been posting reminders and signup sheets for any camper or group of campers who have a unique skill, talent or interest that they want to share with us. The talent show never fails to amaze the whole camp and tonight was no exception! With a large selection of music and dancing shows, the campers proved that they are true artists. We are extremely proud of the performers and of the audience, who were exceptional. It is a night that we will remember for a very long time!
