Summer Camp YPO-JLU
Day 5: Back in the Water and Dancing on Ice
After our morning with speaker Rhett Godfrey, campers were excited to return to the river for an afternoon or either canyoning or rafting.
We had one group of rafters, who floated downstream together, enjoying the sometimes lazy pace to take in the surrounding scenery and then paddled with all their might to avoid swifter, stickier situations. The other half went canyoning, where many faced their fears by jumping from high cliffs and in between slim rock faces into natural pools below and gracefully manoeuvred over slippery rocks and floated down river in deeper parts.
We started our evening off with a surprise-- a magical surprise. Unbeknownst to our campers, our talented director, Victor, is also an incredible magician. He performed tricks that stunned the crowd and even invited them to participate in the fun and games. Seriously, how does he do it? Then, we hopped on a bus to the ice rink for a fun evening of skating, dancing, and certainly falling, all while our superstar camper, Sydney, DJed the festivities. Our more experienced counsellors and campers helped those who were new to this slippery, icy activity and by the end everyone was zooming around (often with the aid of whales and dolphins).
