You just gotta love a Super Awesome Game Show, especially when Suzie, Barney and Mason are in charge. It’s a divisional show-down, with lights, music and plenty of action.
Cubs, Lions, Tigers, Freshmen, Sophomores and Juniors competed against each other, in assorted stunt activities as well as trivia. It was a totally fair game no matter how old you were, because let’s face it, there’s some things that little guys just do better. Take hula hooping for example. Plus, cheering for your counselors can be extra loud no matter how old you are.
But sometimes you just can’t tell who will win. Counselors had to do squats for as long as they could, with a camper on their back. You’d think that the winner would have a 45-pounder on him. But tonight it was golf counselor Cooper weighted down with a thirteen-year-old Archie that took first place.
Extra smart in the trivia sections about geography and animals were Elijah E, Theo R, Bernie, Sawyer, Sam P and Lionel. Brooks, Luke Y and Royal knew the most about Film and TV.
The Simon Says battle got down to two experts. It was Grady vs Jacob W for the longest time, until one little, tiny slip and... Grady wins!
Counselors were great sports about the stunts, and all were willing to get dirty. For example, the Egg Toss. It’s crazy how far athletes can toss an egg and catch it -- until one slight slip-up and…splat!
Highlight was the Beauty Parlor. Each Division sent three campers and one counselor to the stage. With a can of shaving cream, the kids had to give their counselor a new hair style... several mohawks appeared.
Earlier today was Clinic Sign-ups. Commercials were at their best because this is actually the last week. Lots of Color War prep was offered. Here’s the roster:
Waterskiing is for those who want to cross the wake. Record holder is Tomas Z who crossed 184 wakes in 60 seconds.
Tennis will work on topspin, slice and backspin. Lots of tricks will be shared at Lax. They’ll learn to go behind-the-back and around-the-world, get better at coming up with ground balls and use the radar gun too.
The Vikings came to introduce Shep’s "Viking Voyage" for reading. Sail Dock offered the last chance to learn to sail. "Perfect Your Putt" at golf, "Cardio Football" out front, "Action & Skill" week at Hoops. "Hockey Warriors" will work on in-game strategies. Track & Field will cover the long jump, shot put and running a dash.
Soccer will cover it all. SkyRopes will teach you anything and everything at the course. "Robinhood Archery" and "Professor Good Coach Baseball" are other options. The Olympic Training Center will teach about muscles -- lengthening, isolating and contracting.
Challenge the records at H2O’s "Olympic Time Trials" or "Be the Face" of Sky SportsCenter. Last but very important – "Props & Scenery" for those who want to help Suzie with all that’s needed to make "Peter Pan" come alive.
We love all the choices
