2021 Tuesday Camp
What an absolutely amazing second day! I told all of our new side walkers on Monday, today is an easy day... enjoy it while it lasts! I don't know if they believed me or not, but our campers showed up ready to RIDE and ride FAST today and they put their side walkers to work! If you have never experienced it, I can't explain it to you, there are no words to even begin to explain it! The smiles, the "let's go," "go again," "keep going," "don't stop" make all of the hard work worth it! Just LOOK at this smile!
As you can see, in the ring there was no shortage of smiles and riding! Today campers started with a nice warm up and practiced carrying an egg and spoon. Then they got to speed it up and carry their egg and spoon while trotting! Before we were done we practiced steering around a barrel and picking up a stick out of a bucket and putting it back. But of course we couldn't stop there.... we had to speed it up! Side walkers.... I hope you get plenty of rest tonight because now that our campers have gotten a taste of the faster pace... tomorrow they will be ready to go!
In arts and crafts, campers painted river rocks to turn into picture holders, made pour paint pots that we will paint later this week and made "splat" pants!
Today we had a special guest, Lindsay Latham who did musical activities with the campers.
At the end of the day campers enjoyed a snack provided by Emmanuel Episcopal Church in Rapidan and ice pops by Orange Presbyterian Church.
