We had the kids delve into several different and creative activities throughout the week. On Monday we started off with some awesome karaoke where <strong>Julia</strong> sang Let it Go from Frozen and <strong>Nolan</strong> sang Rude by MAGIC!. Another thing that Hollywood provided the group this week was a Learn, Listen, and Play where the kids were able to play with a parachute and learn different rhythms. <strong>Ashleigh</strong> and <strong>Julian</strong> in particular really enjoyed moving to the beat and letting go. As we move on from Hollywood, this week we were able to play several different sports. On Wednesday, we played World Cup and <strong>Sophia</strong> and <strong>Ana</strong>, the dynamic duo, kicked butt as they represented Germany. <strong>Quinn </strong>and <strong>Ava</strong> always enjoyed the chance to cool off after sport with a bunch of awesome jumps into the pool. In Science this week the kids were able to learn about the life cycle of several different insects. <strong>Elly</strong>,<strong> Logan</strong>, and <strong>Leah </strong>were able to draw the different stages of a grasshopper, fly, and ant beautifully. As we move along, in art this week the kids were able to make fierce lion masks. <strong>Sienna</strong> and <strong>Lukas</strong> both used oil pastels to illustrate the intimate details that comes with a lions face. Also in art, when everyone finished their lion masks, Lauren provided them with the opportunity to get creative with playdough. This was <strong>Eric''s </strong>favorite part by far and <strong>Sarah</strong> also enjoyed the down time. Last but certainly not least, we have our Camper of the Week, <strong>Maddie</strong>! She was an awesome addition to our group as she always was willing to lend a hand and participate. She was always listening to instructions and had a consistent smile on her face from ear to ear. Thank you for such a great week and we hope to see you back next week!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria, Alyson, and Kevin\r\n<h1></h1>\r\n<h1>Blue and Gold Week!</h1>\r\nThis week we split the dragons into two different teams, Blue vs. Gold!

Both Elly and Leah had a lot of fun with different food oriented guessing games and learning funny camp songs.  In art we where able to create are own food plate and make human skeletons out of pasta.  Sophia and Logan made fantastic projects and had a blast the whole time.  Then in science we kept a food journal for the week to watch what we ate and to see how healthy it was.  Julia and Quinn did a wonderful job with this activity and also enjoyed when we melted chocolate by reflecting the sun. In the pool we had another great week of lessons and fun.  Hannah and Lydia really enjoyed themselves while we there and the rest of the group loved being able to cool off from the hot days.  Finally we had many fun activities when we played sport and game.  This week our sport period coincided with the Gophers which created a fun rivalry between the two groups.  In dodge ball Ava and Lukas had a blast and got both campers and councilors out.  Then in kickball Ashleigh and Ryan did great and where able to make crucial plays.  Finally after a great week we as councilors had a tough decision to make for our camper of the week.  However, in the end we decided on Ana to be our camper of the week.  She had great listening skills all week and always participated in every activity.  We look forward to seeing the campers again after the long weekend.  Happy Fourth of July!!

On Wednesday kids got to dress up as their favorite safari animal. There were all sorts of animals kids chose.

As always, the Big Dogs were kept busy with different sports each day. To start off the week, we played basketball and <strong>Nolan </strong>and <strong>Owen</strong> both thoroughly enjoyed scoring points for their team to get them to championships. On Tuesday, it was our typical cheer day for the camp. <strong>Seth</strong> pulled through on the cheer and lead the team with much enthusiasm and Big Dog pride. In addition to basketball, during floor hockey on Wednesday, <strong>Grace</strong> swept the floor with her hockey skills and showed the boys who was boss. The kids were also able to play World Cup where <strong>Patrick</strong>, <strong>Ryan</strong>, and <strong>Franny</strong>, won both rounds as Germany with their impressive foot work. Typically Big Dogs aren''t participants of Art throughout the week but being as it is carnival week, they had to go to Art so they could make "Prize Bags" to hold the goodies that they win during the Carnival. <strong>Morgan</strong> and <strong>Matt P.</strong> made the best of it and made pretty sweet prize bags. Another thing that the team enjoyed a lot was cooling down in the AC during computer time. <strong>Matthew</strong> and <strong>Nick</strong> had lots of fun playing several different games throughout the allotted time frame. <strong>George</strong>, <strong>Zach</strong>, and <strong>Josh</strong> said that they exclusively appreciated pool time after being all hot and sweaty from all the sports that we did throughout the day. Finally we have our Camper of the Week. This camper not only had fun while participating in all the activities, but he also always had a smile on his face and tried his absolute hardest. Congratulations, <strong>Ethan</strong>!! We hope the kids had a great week and hope to see them again sometime this summer!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria, James, and Chris', 'All Sports', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'open', '', '40-revision-v1', '', '', '2014-07-25 13:53:43', '2014-07-25 13:53:43', '', 40, 'http://futurestarscamps.com/delval/?p=1400', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

This week at camp we explored the magic of the carnival, ending on Friday with our camp wide carnival. On Monday, we had a special visit from a one man circus. We watched in amazement as our special guest juggled, tight rope walked, and even did some crazy stunts on a unicycle. It was <strong>Ana</strong> who was most enthralled by the juggling, giggling right along as different objects whizzed into the air. In Art we made pinwheels to celebrate carnival week. <strong>Logan</strong> had the most fun decorating and assembling his pinwheel. In Hollywood we played carnival inspired games and it was <strong>Ava</strong> who proved to be victorious as she scored the most points collectively out of anyone else! On Tuesday we had a special tour of the Del Val campus as we took a hayride. <strong>Lydia</strong> enjoyed picking out all the farm animals and saying hello to them as we passed.

Another thing that Hollywood provided the group this week was a Learn, Listen, and Play where the kids were able to play with a parachute and learn different rhythms. <strong>Ashleigh</strong> and <strong>Julian</strong> in particular really enjoyed moving to the beat and letting go. As we move on from Hollywood, this week we were able to play several different sports. On Wednesday, we played World Cup and <strong>Sophia</strong> and <strong>Ana</strong>, the dynamic duo, kicked butt as they represented Germany. <strong>Quinn </strong>and <strong>Ava</strong> always enjoyed the chance to cool off after sport with a bunch of awesome jumps into the pool.

Also in art, when everyone finished their lion masks, Lauren provided them with the opportunity to get creative with playdough. This was <strong>Eric''s </strong>favorite part by far and <strong>Sarah</strong> also enjoyed the down time. Last but certainly not least, we have our Camper of the Week, <strong>Maddie</strong>! She was an awesome addition to our group as she always was willing to lend a hand and participate. She was always listening to instructions and had a consistent smile on her face from ear to ear.

Both Elly and Leah had a lot of fun with different food oriented guessing games and learning funny camp songs.  In art we where able to create are own food plate and make human skeletons out of pasta.  Sophia and Logan made fantastic projects and had a blast the whole time.  Then in science we kept a food journal for the week to watch what we ate and to see how healthy it was.  Julia and Quinn did a wonderful job with this activity and also enjoyed when we melted chocolate by reflecting the sun. In the pool we had another great week of lessons and fun.  Hannah and Lydia really enjoyed themselves while we there and the rest of the group loved being able to cool off from the hot days.  Finally we had many fun activities when we played sport and game.  This week our sport period coincided with the Gophers which created a fun rivalry between the two groups.  In dodge ball Ava and Lukas had a blast and got both campers and councilors out.  Then in kickball Ashleigh and Ryan did great and where able to make crucial plays.  Finally after a great week we as councilors had a tough decision to make for our camper of the week.  However, in the end we decided on Ana to be our camper of the week.  She had great listening skills all week and always participated in every activity.  We look forward to seeing the campers again after the long weekend.  Happy Fourth of July!!

We split up the panda group in two teams (one team blue and one team gold).  We kept track of the points the whole week and added them up at the end of the week with all the other groups points to see who won.  We had two amazing performances this week. The first one was one Monday, which was two fencing coaches came in to talk to the campers about the sport. The next one was Friday, and that was jump ropers who called themselves the "Bungee Jumpers." They did synchronizing jumps with the jump ropes.  On Thursday we had our annual field day with the blue team vs the gold team.  There were 7 different sports stations for the campers to show off their athletic skill.\r\n\r\n<strong>Noah B.</strong> is really showing no fear with jumping into the pool now and even going under the water!\r\n\r\n<strong>Noah C.</strong> had so much fun playing on the computer during our computer period!\r\n\r\n<strong>Emma</strong> showed all the counselors her speed while playing duck, duck, PANDA at our game period!\r\n\r\n<strong>Amelia</strong> had so much fun in art coloring her dragon!\r\n\r\n<strong>James</strong> is finally swimming by himself in the pool with out any counselors helping him!\r\n\r\n<strong>Mikayla</strong> sang and danced to frozen when we played freeze dance!\r\n\r\n<strong>Lilah</strong> shared all her blocks when we played in science!\r\n\r\n<strong>Emily</strong> had so much fun in art this week!\r\n\r\n<strong>Hailey</strong> along with Noah B jumped off the wall at the po0l and went all the way under water!\r\n\r\n<strong>Caroline</strong> was an amazing line leader this week, directing us from activity to activity.\r\n\r\n<strong>Julianna</strong> Was unbeatable in our trivia game in Hollywood\r\n\r\n<strong>Stephen</strong> had so much fun making our tie dye flowers in Science!\r\n\r\nOur camper of the week goes to <strong>Grace</strong>!

This was the first week here at Future Stars and we''re kicking it off right. The Gophers enjoyed different activities that we provided for them throughout the week. In Science we did several cool projects that involved the three R''s: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. <strong>Vincent</strong> really enjoyed making paper from scratch. As we move on to Art class with Sarah, the kids were able to make frog origami and watch The Lorax. With the frog origami, <strong>Brianna</strong> created the frog that jumped the highest which was super cool to watch. When we weren''t in Science or Art, we were keeping the kids busy with several different sports. One of the sports we played was soccer where both <strong>Ella</strong> and <strong>Maya </strong>demonstrated their awesome skills while leading their team to victory with a final score of 6-1. Another game we played was 4-square where <strong>Delaina </strong>loved hitting the ball and getting her fellow Gophers out and advancing to the King square. We also played water-polo in the pool where <strong>Sarah </strong>kept a strong wall of defense and hardly let the ball get past her. On top of having sport, game, and pool, the kids were able to cool down in the computer lab and play games and listen to music. <strong>Marlena</strong> and <strong>Jared</strong> in particular really enjoyed this down time where they were able to play the games of their choice. Last but certainly not least, we have our camper of the week! This camper was always holding doors for everyone, following the counselor''s instructions, and participating in every activity we threw at him. Congratulations to <strong>Parker</strong> for being our camper of the week! It was a delight getting to know all of the kids and we can''t wait to see them next week! Happy first week of summer!</span>\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria and Eleanor\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h1><span style="color: #3366ff;">Red, White, and Blue Week</span></h1>\r\n<span style="color: #000000;">The second week at Future Stars was red, white and blue week, where campers showed their patriotic colors and had some fun while they were at it. On Monday, we played dodgeball, where <strong>Ella </strong>excelled and showed how well she could play.<strong> Nadia </strong>had fun in the pool during free swim, and was great at human-basketball. On Tuesday, <strong>Luca</strong> and <strong>Shaymus </strong>competed against each other to win Knockout, with Shaymus winning once and Luca winning once, ending in a fun tie.<strong> Delia</strong> loved learning about Fuel for Fun in Science, which taught us how to eat healthy to take care of our bodies. In Art, we created skeletons out of different types of pasta, and <strong>Julia </strong>made an amazing creepy skeleton. <strong>Catie </strong>also added exceptional detail to her skeleton, making sure that all the elbow noodles of the skull were aligned correctly. Wednesday in the pool was Water Polo Wednesday, where <strong>Molly </strong>put up great offense for her team, scoring 4 goals to win the game 7-6. On the other end, <strong>Tommy </strong>put up great defense, stopping quite a few sure goals. Later in the week, we competed in Relay races, where <strong>Delania </strong>and <strong>Marlena </strong>showed their speedy swimming skills by keeping a ball in a cone in front of them, while swimming around a counselor. They both made impressive times! <strong>Brianna </strong>showed how artistic she was when we made plates in art, including all the important grain, vegetable, fruit, dairy, and protein groups to make a healthy plate. <strong>Stephanie</strong> and <strong>Emma </strong>loved computers, when they had an opportunity to relax and play games. Tuesday was cheer day and <strong>Maya </strong>showed the whole camp her singing skills, winning the cheer competition with her original song and singing. Congratulations to <strong>Maya </strong>for being our camper of the week! Have a great Fourth of July and we can''t wait to see them all back for another great week of camp.</span>\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nEleanor and Drew\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h1><span style="color: #ffcc00;">Blue Gold Week</span></h1>\r\n<span style="color: #000000;">The third week of camp was Blue Gold week, where campers got the chance to show their sportsmanship and competitive side in various Olympic style events.  On Monday, we got to see a cool fencing demonstrating by Liberty Fencing Company. On Tuesday the Gophers got the chance to fence themselves and the group had a blast. <strong>Griffin </strong>and <strong>Catie </strong>showed skills they didn''t even know they had, and had such a fun time learning the different fencing techniques. <strong>Delia</strong> worked with her group in Hollywood to come up with a group cheer for cheer day on Tuesday. <strong>Gianna P. </strong>and <strong>Tommy</strong> worked together very well during a game of steal the bacon in swimming. This week in Art class, the gophers have been working on shading and drawing dragons based off of a step by step Youtube video. <strong>Kayla, Gianna R., </strong>and <strong>Delania </strong>did a great job drawing and coloring their dragons.During Hollywood, the group played guess the celebrity, and <strong>Sarah </strong>was a great contributor to her group. In sport on Tuesday the gophers played against the dragons in dodgeball. <strong>Catie </strong>and <strong>Brianna </strong>were awesome players and got a lot of their opponents out. In science on Wednesday, the group got a chance to make bubbles in a unique way. They used pieces of string and straws to make big bubbles. <strong>Ella </strong>used her resources to make the bubbles work when the original idea didn''t work. In science of Thursday, the gophers used coffee filters, water, and markers to make a tie-dye type concept. <strong>Lucia </strong>and <strong>Maya </strong>made beautiful creations, that they then made into flowers. On Thursday, the camp had the Blue Gold Olympics! The gophers had a blast and were so supportive of their teammates.<b> Stephanie </b>and <strong>Emma </strong>cheered on their teammates during the water relay, where the teams had to fill a bucket with water as fast as they could. <strong>Marlena</strong> showed great effort during another event, called the over-under relay in which the group stands in a line and passes the ball to each player. Since there wasn''t an even number of each of the two teams, <strong>Tommy </strong>offered to go to the gold team even though he was on the blue team. <strong>Luca </strong>and <strong>Nadia </strong>explored their own jump roping skills after seeing the Bungee Jumpers perform on Friday. <strong>Evan </strong>did a fantastic job on his first day of camp of Friday and made beautiful tie-dye paper during science. Also, congratulations to <strong>Brianna </strong>who was the gopher camper of the week! She showed awesome sportsmanship and always listened to and followed the rules.                                                                            </span>\r\n\r\n<span style="color: #ffcc00;"> <span style="color: #000000;">Your counselors,</span><span style="color: #888888;">\r\n</span></span>\r\n\r\nLaura, Chris, and Nick\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h1><span style="color: #339966;">Safari Week</span></h1>\r\nFor the fourth week of camp at Future Stars, the theme was Safari. This week, we adventured different aspects of a safari in art and science and even explored the Del Val campus to complete our very own photo scavenger hunt. In Hollywood this week, we had Jensen Music come and teach the campers some basics of music. <strong>Vincent </strong>and <strong>Lucia</strong> showed off their musical knowledge by answering many difficult questions about the clefs and music staff. Also in Hollywood, we had many opportunities for karaoke and <strong>Gianna </strong>and <strong>Emma </strong>shined in their performances of many current pop songs. They showed their confidence in their amazing singing abilities in front of the whole group. While karaoke was happening, <strong>Shaymus</strong> was breaking out in dance moves and impressed everyone with his ability to break dance. In art, <strong>Ella </strong>created an awesome chalk drawing of a zebra, while <strong>Catie </strong>had a spectacular oil pastel drawing of a lion. During science, <strong>Julia </strong>and <strong>Sam </strong>were very interested in the caterpillars and butterflies that were displayed in science. They asked great questions and showed a great curiosity towards the life cycle of a butterfly. <strong>Marlena</strong>, <strong>Stephanie</strong>, <strong>Sarah</strong> had a very funny skit that they used to share their information that they gained about the zebras that live in the savanna biome. In the pool, <strong>Delania </strong> and <strong>Nadia </strong>won many of the freestyle and breaststroke races, and they were great examples for all of the other kids who were learning the strokes. While playing dodge ball against the counselors in the group, <strong>Caiden </strong>and <strong>Anthony </strong>were successful in not only dodging the balls, but also getting most of the counselors out. <strong>Isha </strong>dominated in World Cup soccer by scoring multiple goals and leading her team to victory. Lastly, we would like to congratulate <strong>Paula </strong>on being camper of the week for the gopher group! She was very respectful and a pleasure to have in our group this week!\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nSarah, Nolan, and Chris\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h1><span style="color: #ff0000;">Carnival Week</span></h1>\r\n<span style="color: #000000;">This week at Future Stars is always a very exciting week for both campers and counselors! Carnival week is always very entertaining with having a Solo Circus on Monday and our very own carnival on Friday. In Hollywood, we experimented different carnival games to get ready for the carnival. <strong>Marlena</strong> even brought in her own game that she made up for the group to play; everyone had a blast playing it! One game in particular was very challenging, but <strong>Sam </strong>and <strong>Gianna P.</strong> were successful in completing the challenge. They had to toss a tennis ball into a small hole that was the exact size as the tennis ball.  Also during Hollywood, we put our skills to the test while playing charades. <strong>Delia </strong>and <strong>Kayla </strong>lead their team to victory, both as actors and guessers.   <strong>Paula</strong> showed us her artistic ability and creativity while recreating a very famous circus painting while in art. Also, <strong>Chloe</strong> and <strong>Emma </strong>made very stylish pinwheels that go along with the carnival theme. Science this week consisted of very new aspects of science, but that didn''t stop <strong>Delania </strong>and <strong>Catie</strong>! They showed us their knowledge of forces and friction by answering many tricky questions and participating in the demonstrations. While the Solo Circus was here, <strong>Stephanie</strong> was called to the front to help the juggler when he dropped one or needed to add another ball or pin. On Tuesday, we had Belgium horses come and give us a hayride around the Del Val campus. <strong>Gianna R. </strong>enjoyed this hayride and loved the chance to see the farm animals that Del Val has on their campus. On Wednesday, we had crazy sock day and <strong>Lucia</strong> showed her spirit by having socks on her feet, hands, and even in her hair! <strong>Shaymus</strong> and <strong>Luca </strong>were experts at playing Pac-Man tag, making it look a lot easier than it actually was. <strong>Nadia </strong>was an excellent swimmer this week. She was a great team player in water polo and was very hard to catch while the kids played Categories. Finally, our camper of the week this week was <strong>Julia</strong>! She was very enthusiastic all week and very sweet to the campers and counselors!</span>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nShane, Sarah, and Helen', 'Hawk/Gopher', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'open', '', '245-revision-v1', '', '', '2014-07-25 15:28:24', '2014-07-25 15:28:24', '', 245, 'http://futurestarscamps.com/delval/?p=1409', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

The kids were also able to play World Cup where <strong>Patrick</strong>, <strong>Ryan</strong>, and <strong>Franny</strong>, won both rounds as Germany with their impressive foot work. Typically Big Dogs aren''t participants of Art throughout the week but being as it is carnival week, they had to go to Art so they could make "Prize Bags" to hold the goodies that they win during the Carnival. <strong>Morgan</strong> and <strong>Matt P.</strong> made the best of it and made pretty sweet prize bags. Another thing that the team enjoyed a lot was cooling down in the AC during computer time. <strong>Matthew</strong> and <strong>Nick</strong> had lots of fun playing several different games throughout the allotted time frame. <strong>George</strong>, <strong>Zach</strong>, and <strong>Josh</strong> said that they exclusively appreciated pool time after being all hot and sweaty from all the sports that we did throughout the day.

On Wednesday kids got to dress up as their favorite safari animal. There were all sorts of animals kids chose. Thursday we did a scavenger hunt taking picture all around Del Val''s campus.  In the sharks group we played every possible game or sport you can think of.  BRADY did so well in the pool with instructor Lauren.  ANDREW was a knock out champion and even got out Counselor Drew.  MATT E. was an amazing ultimate Frisbee catcher.  CONNER G. had some ridiculous shots in 3 on 3 basketball.  TYLER scored the winning touchdown in flag football.  TOMMY R. was the ultimate hustler when we played capture the flag.  ROMAN was a good sport in every game and always shared good sportsmanship with the other campers. GAVIN and HUNTER had a master homerun in tennis baseball. COLLIN C. was the loudest at cheer day mesmerized the whole cheer.  CONNOR C. was an awesome captain in homerun derby and has a wicked wrist shot in hockey.  SAGE was a dead eye in shoot out.  COLLIN J. had so much fun playing ultimate football. NOLAN came in the sharks a little late but had a great time playing run the bases. He really showed off his speed.  Last but not least is our camper of the week who was... DYLAN V. DYLAN showed great sportsmanship throughout the week, and really showed every camper his skills in every sport.  What a great week we had and we hope to see everyone next week!\r\n\r\nCounselors,\r\n\r\nDrew, Matt, Joe, and Matt\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h1><span style="color: #ff00ff;">~Carnival Week~</span></h1>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nBIG DOGS\r\n\r\nThis week here at Future Stars is Carnival Week! As always, the Big Dogs were kept busy with different sports each day. To start off the week, we played basketball and <strong>Nolan </strong>and <strong>Owen</strong> both thoroughly enjoyed scoring points for their team to get them to championships. On Tuesday, it was our typical cheer day for the camp. <strong>Seth</strong> pulled through on the cheer and lead the team with much enthusiasm and Big Dog pride. In addition to basketball, during floor hockey on Wednesday, <strong>Grace</strong> swept the floor with her hockey skills and showed the boys who was boss. The kids were also able to play World Cup where <strong>Patrick</strong>, <strong>Ryan</strong>, and <strong>Franny</strong>, won both rounds as Germany with their impressive foot work. Typically Big Dogs aren''t participants of Art throughout the week but being as it is carnival week, they had to go to Art so they could make "Prize Bags" to hold the goodies that they win during the Carnival. <strong>Morgan</strong> and <strong>Matt P.</strong> made the best of it and made pretty sweet prize bags. Another thing that the team enjoyed a lot was cooling down in the AC during computer time. <strong>Matthew</strong> and <strong>Nick</strong> had lots of fun playing several different games throughout the allotted time frame. <strong>George</strong>, <strong>Zach</strong>, and <strong>Josh</strong> said that they exclusively appreciated pool time after being all hot and sweaty from all the sports that we did throughout the day. Finally we have our Camper of the Week. This camper not only had fun while participating in all the activities, but he also always had a smile on his face and tried his absolute hardest. Congratulations, <strong>Ethan</strong>!! We hope the kids had a great week and hope to see them again sometime this summer!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria, James, and Chris\r\n\r\n<span style="color: #0000ff;">SHARKS</span>\r\n\r\n<span style="color: #000000;">What a fun week at camp!

The week started out amazingly with a one-man circus performing on Monday! It ended with the camp carnival on Friday! <strong>Isabelle </strong>made a beautiful pinwheel designed with flowers in Art. <strong>Madison </strong>made her pinwheel super colorful with an awesome tie-dye pattern. <strong>Hannah </strong>painted a great carnival scene on Thursday and Friday! In Science, <strong>Tyler</strong> had a great time playing tug-of-war and learning about physics. <strong>Tanner </strong>learned a lot about matter when he played with Oobleck, which is both a solid and a liquid. <strong>Annabel </strong>and <strong>Kate </strong>had a great time learning about chemical reactions by blowing up a balloon with vinegar and baking soda. They chose to sit in the splash zone! <strong>Andrew </strong>had a great time all week playing carnival games in Hollywood. <strong>Caterina </strong>showed off her fabulous acting skills when we played competitive charades in Hollywood. When the Gators played sports this week, <strong>Nolan </strong>showed off his basketball skills during a few rounds of knock-out! <strong>Grace </strong>did a great job scoring some goals for her team during handball. <strong>Emeric </strong>had an awesome time learning a new sport when we played ultimate Frisbee. <strong>Danielle </strong>loved sliding down the giant, inflatable waterslide on Thursday!

We look forward to three more amazing weeks of camp!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nEleanor, Nolan &amp; Steve\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #339966;">Safari</span> Week!</h1>\r\nThis week was Safari Week! We had Karaoke, Jensen Music, a campus-wide scavenger hunt and Learn, Listen, Play! It was a week of adventure as we learned about the African Savannah, its wildlife, and the food chain. <strong>Caterina </strong>led her group in depth presentation on giraffes, which was then creatively presented by her, <strong>Julia</strong>, <strong>Aubrey </strong>and <strong> Kate</strong> as if it were a news report. <strong>Hannah </strong>drew an awesome Zebra on her group''s poster presentation. All the presentations were great and we learned some really interesting stuff. In art, we drew some of the animals we were researching in science and used oil pastels to bring them to life. <strong>Abbey''s </strong>psychedelic elephant and <strong>Madison G''s</strong> lounging leopard should be seen by every pair of eyes. <strong>Max </strong>had impressive creativity in art, thinking outside the box.<strong> </strong> The campers rocked the stage with karaoke and had some good laughs while doing it. <strong>Madison S </strong>sang out a Taylor Swift song and <strong>Franny</strong>, though he didn''t know all the lyrics to the particular song, had an unparalleled stage presence. We also enjoyed playing freeze tag where all the counselors were the "freezers". <strong>Annabel </strong>and <strong>Sidne </strong>created strategies and led the team to defeat the counselors. <strong>Emeric </strong>was always one of the last campers unfrozen. <strong>Deep </strong>enjoyed constructing beats on the djembe drum, while <strong>Jaden </strong>created new rhythms on the conga drums in Learn, Listen, Play. <strong>Tyler </strong>and <strong>Ella </strong>were like fish in the pool, often being the demonstration for the correct way to do different strokes we are learning. <strong>Tanner </strong>was the victor in an intense game of HORSE. <strong>Isabelle </strong>and <strong>Andrew </strong>were both scoring many points for there teams during a game of Mattball. Our camper of the week this week is <strong>Tanner. </strong>His positive participation and encouragement of others is an example to all of us. He is a hard worker and respects his fellow campers and his counselors. It was a pleasure to have him in our group. Another great week for the Gators! And as always, we''re looking forward to seeing you next week!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nAlison, Eleanor and Cory\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Blue <span style="color: #000000;">&amp; <span style="color: #ffff00;">Gold <span style="color: #000000;">Week</span></span></span></span></h1>\r\nThis week here at Future Stars we had Blue and Gold Week! Blue and Gold Week is the week where the counselors split up the group into two teams, blue and gold, respectively. It is a week filled with fun and friendly competition. Not only were we competitive in sports, but we were also able to incorporate some competition into our other daily activities. For example, in Hollywood, we had a special guest, Frank, who taught the kids different rhythms they could beat on their drums. During this time, <strong>Tyler</strong> and <strong>Ryan</strong> had a blast "dancing to the beat of their own drums". When we didn''t have our special guest, the kids were entertained with a game of "Guess Who" where Theresa provided pictures of famous people and the counselors at camp and the two teams had to guess who it was, first. <strong>Jimmy</strong>, on the blue team helped lead his team to victory; however, <strong>Isabelle</strong> and <strong>Hannah</strong> didn''t make it easy for him being as they were both forces to be reckoned with on the gold team. Moving on to Science, this week the kids were able to observe the beautiful colors that surround us everyday. To start off the week, Tricia had the kids watch a Brain Pop that talked all about tinting and blending colors together. After the video, <strong>Sidne</strong> proved to us that she had a full understanding of the material as she colored a coffee filter with markers and then watered it down and watched the colors bleed out. Also in Science class, we took flowers, cut their stems, and stuck them into color-dyed water and watch them slowly turn. <strong>Jaden</strong>, <strong>Nolan</strong>, and <strong>Abbey</strong> really enjoyed watching our flowers go from white to blue and yellow (for Blue and Gold Week)--it was super cool. As we progress into Art, the kids had a lot of fun sketching and coloring in their drawings. Although at first, <strong>Franny</strong> had a hard time sketching his owl, he persevered and managed to draw an awesome owl; a sketch he could be proud of. Once warmed up, the kids watched a video that helped them draw an awesome fire-breathing dragon. <strong>Maddie</strong> and <strong>Emeric</strong> drew awesome dragons and colored them in beautifully, using a large array of colors. We were lucky enough to have more than one special guest this week being as on Monday and Tuesday, professional fencers came in and did some demonstrations. Following the informational session, the kids were able to fence themselves, and learn the special techniques behind fencing. <strong>Samantha</strong> and <strong>Max</strong> had a blast fencing one another with both the foil and the saber. Because this week is in fact Blue and Gold week, the kids had  a chance on Thursday to participate in several relay races where <strong>Andrew</strong> kicked some butt and helped his team win crucial points. Last but definitely not least, we have our camper of the week, <strong>Danielle</strong>. She was an amazing listener, put her heart and soul into everything she did, and never once acted out. She is a role model to her fellow Gators and it was a pleasure to be her counselor this week. We hope the kids had fun and we can''t wait to see you back here next week!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria and Cory\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff6600;">~Fuel for Fun~</span></h1>\r\nTwo weeks down and six more to go! This week at Future Stars our main focus was on learning about nutrition and eating healthy! All of our activities in Art, Science, and Hollywood had to do with keeping our bodies in shape. In Art we made macaroni skeletons and made our own healthy food plates. <strong>Kenzie</strong> and <strong>Grace</strong> showed us how dedicated they were to eating healthy as they put all the food groups onto their plates. In Science we were able to make our own chocolate using chocolate chips, aluminum plates, and the sun. <strong>Isabelle </strong>devoured her chocolate and threw in a healthy banana to the mix. In Science we also learned how to read the nutrition facts on products you can buy at the store and <strong>Tyler</strong> and <strong>Jimmy</strong> worked together to decipher what meant what and what ingredients were healthy and what which ones weren''t. As we move on to Hollywood, Mrs. Theresa provided us with a bundle of different games that included fruits, vegetables, and crazy songs that taught us about what foods go with what. As the kids competed to see who knew their fruits best, <strong>Emeric </strong>came out on top as he was our winner for several intense rounds. When we weren''t in Art, Science, or Hollywood, we were playing in the gym and running around. <strong>Kya</strong> showed her team spirit and awesome kick during World Cup which helped her move on the one of the last rounds. However, with <strong>Danielle</strong>''s awesome foot work, she moved on to the final round and was crowned our champion. In addition to playing World Cup, we also had the kids play Knock Out. During Knock Out <strong>Ryan</strong> and <strong>Morgan</strong> sunk the basketball more than once making them both forces to be reckoned with. Since this week was such a scorcher, to cool off we spent time in the computer lab. Every time we would walk into the air conditioning, <strong>Maddie</strong> and <strong>Tanner</strong> couldn''t wait to just dive in and play games of their choice during our down time. Another way we were able to simmer down was during our much appreciated pool time. This week we were lucky and were able to play Water Polo both on Monday and on Wednesday. Both of those days, <strong>Hannah</strong> and <strong>Andrew</strong> dominated and proved their defensive and offensive skills. Last but certainly not least, we have <strong>Caterina</strong>, our camper of the week. This week we needed some extra hands and she, without complaint, stepped up to the plate and showed us she had what it takes to be a counselor. Not only was she responsible, but she also managed to have fun at the same time-- the number one rule at camp. Thank you, Caterina for helping out! We had a great week here at Future Stars and we can''t wait to see all of your faces next week! <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Happy <span style="color: #000000;">Fourth of</span><span style="color: #000000;"> <span style="color: #3366ff;">July!</span></span></span></strong>\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria and Kevin\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #339966;">Happy Green Earth Week Gators!</span> </strong></h1>\r\n<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" alt="" src="http://www.esri.com/news/arcuser/0610/graphics/nospin_1-lg.jpg" width="319" height="308" /></p>\r\nWe had a wonderful first week at camp! On Monday in Science we started a green observation journal by making the cover of our books, <strong>Caterina</strong> and her brother <strong>Andrew</strong> paid extra special attention to the details of their covers by doing leaf rubs to decorate. For sport we played the All Sports in a game of kickball where <strong>Emeric</strong> really shined, as he kicked home-run after home-run. Tuesday is Cheer Day, in Hollywood we had to come up with a cheer to show our Gator spirit! <strong>Danielle</strong> and <strong>Ella</strong> came up with and led the Gators in an amazing cheer! In Science we put our bird brains to the test in a contest to see who could build the best bird nest. <strong>Isabelle</strong> and <strong>Grace</strong> demonstrated awesome team work, building the perfect home. During game we played knock-out where<strong> Tanner</strong> and <strong>Tyler </strong>were victorious. On Wednesday in Art class we made origami frogs, <strong>Nolan </strong>used his knowledge of the craft to demonstrate to the rest of the group how to make the perfect frog. Wednesday was also Banana Day! <strong>Forrest</strong> really rocked it out showing tremendous spirit and enthusiasm during every group''s banana dance.  On Thursday in Science we used recycled materials to create and decorate our own paper! <strong>Sidne</strong> showed her creative side as she added special touches to her paper. In Hollywood we did Green Earth Week inspired PSAs, <strong>Madison</strong> proved that her voice is radio worthy with a fabulous reading. Our camper of the week, is new comer, <strong>Noah</strong>! Noah demonstrated great camper behavior as he listened carefully to all instructions and was enthusiastic about all of our activities this week. Congratulations Noah!

The first one was one Monday, which was two fencing coaches came in to talk to the campers about the sport.

We split up the panda group in two teams (one team blue and one team gold).  We kept track of the points the whole week and added them up at the end of the week with all the other groups points to see who won.  We had two amazing performances this week. The first one was one Monday, which was two fencing coaches came in to talk to the campers about the sport. The next one was Friday, and that was jump ropers who called themselves the "Bungee Jumpers." They did synchronizing jumps with the jump ropes.  On Thursday we had our annual field day with the blue team vs the gold team.  There were 7 different sports stations for the campers to show off their athletic skill.\r\n\r\n<strong>Noah B.</strong> is really showing no fear with jumping into the pool now and even going under the water!\r\n\r\n<strong>Noah C.</strong> had so much fun playing on the computer during our computer period!\r\n\r\n<strong>Emma</strong> showed all the counselors her speed while playing duck, duck, PANDA at our game period!\r\n\r\n<strong>Amelia</strong> had so much fun in art coloring her dragon!\r\n\r\n<strong>James</strong> is finally swimming by himself in the pool with out any counselors helping him!\r\n\r\n<strong>Mikayla</strong> sang and danced to frozen when we played freeze dance!\r\n\r\n<strong>Lilah</strong> shared all her blocks when we played in science!\r\n\r\n<strong>Emily</strong> had so much fun in art this week!\r\n\r\n<strong>Hailey</strong> along with Noah B jumped off the wall at the po0l and went all the way under water!\r\n\r\n<strong>Caroline</strong> was an amazing line leader this week, directing us from activity to activity.\r\n\r\n<strong>Julianna</strong> Was unbeatable in our trivia game in Hollywood\r\n\r\n<strong>Stephen</strong> had so much fun making our tie dye flowers in Science!\r\n\r\nOur camper of the week goes to <strong>Grace</strong>!

The Ducks and Dragons had a blast making paper rockets, shooting stars, and learning about the planets and making an oil pastel collage of the planets. The Hawks, Gophers, and Gators made their very own rockets out of cardboard and other household items. We made a tissue paper alien craft, created a unique sun using salt, glue, and food dye! We made a chalk moon using beans, beads, and buttons! We made glitter stars from every culture and even made our own suns by squishing saran wrap over top of paint. On Thursday, we learned about Constellations and some of the campers chose which constellation they wanted to draw or they drew the constellation that was considered to be their sign! The Ducks, Dragons, and Hawks used chalk and card stock to create their constellations. The Gophers and Gators used canvas boards and painted a starry background and then added their sign or symbol. Some of the campers had some time playing with Moon Dough made out of paint and flour! The campers enjoyed recreating their very own moon backdrop and using different containers to make craters! The Ducks and Dragons went on a scavenger hunt after they made some moon rocks out of aluminum food and even some Astronaut food. The Dragons worked on a “If I were an Alien” Poem that they would have brought home on Friday!\r\n\r\nI can’t believe we only have one week left of camp!

GOLD WEEK 3</span>\r\n\r\nThis week in Science we played Minute to Win It Games.  Many of the games involved physics and other science related themes.  Some of the games favorites were Pong Tac Toe, Balloon Juggle, Cookie Face, Key Fishing, Pick up Beans, Stack Attack, Say AHH, Noodling Around, Hula Hoop Ball Toss, Sticky Marble Roll and Pom Pom Toss.  In each game a blue member competed against a gold member.  Games were playing simultaneously and campers rotated through each activity.  We had counselor challenges too.  On the last day, we had Blue and Gold Turtle Olympics.  Team spirit and sportsmanship were modeled and encouraged.  This was a really fun week!\r\n\r\nHave a great weekend.\r\n\r\n~Miss Tricia\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style="text-decoration: underline;">FUELED FOR FUN WEEK 4</span><span style="text-decoration: underline;">\r\n</span>\r\n\r\nThis was an incredible week of learning and fun! With our theme being "Fueled for Fun," campers learned and participated in activities that had to do with staying healthy, especially when it comes to food!\r\n\r\nThe week began by learning about the body! The older kids made body maps out of construction and tissue paper to map the skeleton and vital organs while the younger campers learned about how our heartbeats change through various exercises from resting to running and dancing to the music!\r\n\r\nOn Tuesday, campers got to learn about certain ingredients in our food, especially starch. While the older kids continued to finish their body maps and the younger groups built structures out of carrots and peas, all of the campers took part in a starch test experiment! We tested certain foods by dropping an iodine and water solution on them to see if they''d change color to a dark purple! If so, the food contained starch!\r\n\r\nWednesday was another science packed day! The Ducks and the Dragons had a blast making butter out of heavy cream and manpower! We all sat in a circle and took turns shaking the butter jar to the beat of the music! The outcome was absolutely delicious! The older groups learned about DNA, and we were even able to extract DNA from strawberries!!!\r\n\r\nThursday and Friday were both invested in making and cooking with solar ovens! We used pizza boxes and a few other supplies to create heat traps in which we placed s''more ingredients! We then let them soak up some rays for a few minutes and the product was unbelievably delicious! Maybe not the healthiest snack for Fueled for Fun week, but definitely a FUN treat!!! It was a great activity that got us outside to enjoy the fantastic weather!!!\r\n\r\nIt was an absolute pleasure filling in for Miss Tricia this week, and I enjoyed every minute spent with each camper!!!\r\n\r\nThanks ,\r\n\r\nBrian :)\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style="text-decoration: underline; color: #888888;">ART-RAGEOUS WEEK 6</span>\r\n\r\nIt is great to be back at camp!  This week in Science we took a dip into the world of Art.  We began our week exploring spices - turmeric, cinnamon, chili powder, and ginger.  First the campers predicted the smell of the spice before it was revealed.  We all knew the sweet smell of cinnamon and the toughest to figure out was turmeric.  The spices were then mixed into paint colors and the campers took to finding their inner artist by creating their own work using spice paints.\r\n\r\nAll campers really had fun with this next activity - Shaving Cream Prints.  We learned that the soap properties of the shaving cream do not absorb food coloring.  When an index card is laid upon the shaving cream swirled with food coloring, the dye is more attracted to the paper.  When excess shaving cream is scraped from the index card, a really cool tie dye effect is left on the index card.  These could be used a great homemade note cards/thank you notes/place cards, etc.\r\n\r\nWe also set up a classroom pendulum - using chairs, the pole of a garden rake, string, cup, water, paper, and of course paint.  We discussed examples of a pendulum - clock, swings, etc.  It was explained that a pendulum has a fixed point and that gravity plays a very important part in its function.  When paint was added, we could see patterns and designs on the paper form as we watched the pendulum swing.\r\n\r\nDucks had fun exploring with food coloring and color explosions with vinegar and baking soda.  This was really fun to watch their reactions, as they saw the colors bubble, fizz, and mix.  They became Mad Scientists!\r\n\r\nDragons, Hawks, Gophers, and Gators learned about artist Georgia O''Keeffe and her work with water color and oil.  Through this project we learned that oil and water don''t mix!  Many of us know that already but it was fun to really see it in action.  We had fun using liquid watercolors - so cool!  They dropped color onto watercolor paper then dropped oil on top.  Beads of color would try to separate from the oil.  They created beautiful, vibrant masterpieces.\r\n\r\nOf course we had to get a bit more messy - so we took on the challenge of creating bouncy balls.  This involved following a recipe to create the right consistency that would produce a material that was able to be molded into a ball.  While the balls didn''t bounce like a super ball - they did bounce!  The whole process was fun and messy.\r\n\r\nLastly, we explored rainbows.  We discussed how a rainbow is made and the colors created.  The project was to make rainbow paper.  Simply dipping a piece of black paper into a bowl of water with a couple drops of clear nail polish creates rainbow paper.  Very cool and super easy.\r\n\r\nHope everyone has a great weekend and welcome August!  Summer is flying by!\r\n\r\n~ Miss Tricia\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<b><span style="text-decoration: underline;">FUTURE STAR BLAZERS   Week</span> 7</b>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThis week in science we began our week by watching a short video of a space shuttle launch - the focus being on how the launch happens.  We then went outdoors and launched film canister rockets.  Many kids had no idea what a film canister was - not surprising.  But they did enjoy the launch.  To do this at home, place an Alka-Seltzer tablet into the canister and add a small amount of water to start dissolving the tablet.  Quickly seal the lid tightly and flip the canister upside down.  Within moments the canister will rocket straight up into the sky.  This was an awesome and fun moment for them.\r\n\r\nFor the older groups - Hawks, Gophers, and Gators, they were put to the test of creating a balloon powered car.  This was done in small groups, with emphasis on making modifications to their cars based upon results.  Propulsion, friction, Newton''s Laws of Motion are all a part of this activity.  The goal was to have you car move by solely being powered by a balloon.  It was awesome to see the teamwork and minds working to create a product.  This was completed over several periods and the final day was a race and explanation of their product.\r\n\r\nThe Ducks and Dragons were given the opportunity to feel what the Moon''s surface would be like.  We created moon dough.  They really enjoyed getting into the dusty and mold-able substance (baking soda, powered black paint, glitter, and water).  They even made some moon rocks.\r\n\r\nAt the end of the week the  Ducks and Dragons learned about Constellations.  Two counselors became human constellations on a large piece of paper.  The campers added the starts and made the night sky.  Each counselor constellation was given a name and shared with the groups.  They were fun and creative!\r\n\r\nHave a great weekend.  See you next week.  I am looking forward to the Camp Show next week!!\r\n\r\n~ Miss Tricia\r\n\r\n&nbsp;', 'Science', '', 'publish', 'open', 'open', '', 'science', '', '', '2015-08-07 14:02:14', '2015-08-07 14:02:14', '', 0, 'http://futurestarscamps.com/delval/?page_id=1643', 0, 'page', '', 0),

This week the Ducks and Dragons continued to focus on freestyle and backstroke. They are very good at cheering each other on! The <strong>Dragons</strong>, <strong>Hawks</strong>, <strong>Sharks, Gators</strong> and <strong>Big Dogs</strong> all learned a new swim skill. They learned how to do flip turns. A flip turn is when you are swimming and then once you get to the wall, flip landing with your feet flat against the wall, push off and continue swimming. We will continue working on this skill but they did great for their first try. Besides that they continued to strengthen their freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke. \r\n\r\nAmanda \r\n\r\nWeek of July 13th\r\n\r\nWe started off our week with our weekly swim test. The campers are showing some real improvement! The <strong>Ducks</strong> continued to work on their freestyle and backstroke basics. More and more are now able to swim the width of the pool. The <strong>Dragons, Hawks, Sharks</strong>, and <strong>Gators</strong> continued to work on their backstroke like last week. They are looking stronger and stronger everyday. The <strong>Gators</strong> and <strong>Big Dogs</strong> continued to work on their breaststroke. We practiced kicking and adding our arms in. It is getting better than we started. On Wednesday the campers played a game called King Fisher. It allows them to practice their endurance as they have to continually get out and swim from width to width until everyone is out. Of course we finished the week with Free Swim Friday.\r\n\r\nAmanda\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>Week of July 6th</strong> We started our week like we normally do with our weekly swim test on Monday to see how the campers are improving and what still needs to be worked on. Throughout the rest of the week the groups either worked on strengthening their backstroke or began breaststroke. The <strong>Ducks</strong> continued working on being comfortable in the water and practiced floating, kicking, freestyle arm strokes, kicking on their back, and blast offs of the wall. They are making great progress! Some of the campers in the Duck group can even make it the width of the pool doing freestyle. The <strong>Dragons, Hawks, Gophers,</strong> and <strong>Gators</strong> worked on strengthening their backstroke this week. They learned some backstroke drills. These drills included kicking on their back in a streamline, swimming backstroke with just their right arm and then next time around with just their left arm for one length of the pool. They also did double arm backstroke. I was very happy when many of them told me they were practicing what they were learning at camp in their pools at home! The <strong>Sharks</strong> and <strong>Big Dogs</strong> began breaststroke this week. We started off the week focusing on the breaststroke kick. They learned how to do it on land first and then we moved in the pool to put it to the test. They started off doing it on their back trying not to let their knees come out of the water. Then they did it the correct way on their stomachs. As the week progressed both groups learned the breaststroke arms to go with the kick. We will continue working on breaststroke all of next week as well. As always we finished off the week with free swim Friday. The campers really deserved it this week as they all worked very hard during swim time. Amanda <strong>Second Week of Camp</strong> This week we worked on a lot of the same techniques as last week. All the groups continued to improve on the techniques they were introduced to last week. The Ducks were put in groups where they worked with one of the counselors on either kicking freestyle with a kickboard, kicking with a kickboard with freestyle arms, and blowing bubbles. They also proved they could all float on their backs. The Dragons continue to work on freestyle as well. The Hawks and Gophers continued working on freestyle and added in some more backstroke practice. The Gators, Sharks, and Big Dogs worked on more freestyle and backstroke as well. Next week they will be introduced to breaststroke which always proves to be an interesting challenge that I am sure they will all embrace! All the groups except the Ducks and Dragons were able to try a specific challenge this week of trying to hold their breath while swimming under water from one side of the pool to the other with the least amount of breaths as possible! There were many campers who made it with one breath or less! We will finish of the week tomorrow with Free Swim Friday. I hope everyone has a safe and fun fourth of July weekend! Amanda <strong>First Week of Camp</strong> All the groups learned a lot at the pool this week! Monday started out with a simple swim test to see where each of the groups were at. During the rest of the week each group worked on various swim techniques. The Ducks and Dragons practiced their freestyle kick during Red Light Green Light and Simon Says. They were then paired up with a counselor where they practiced their kicking, blowing bubbles, floating on their backs and freestyle arms. They made sure to practice big arms for freestyle so they could pull as much water as possible. The Hawks and Gophers started out the week working on freestyle. They were able to practice their freestyle kicks with a kick board, blowing bubbles, side breathing and freestyle arms. They focused on making big arm scoops so that they could pull as much water as possible. Once they mastered that they learned a trick to going faster in the water. They learned about streamlines where they stack both hands over top of each other and then put their arms over their heads. They use this when pushing off the wall. At the end of the week the Hawks and Gophers started to practice their backstroke kicks making sure to keep their heads back facing the sky and not starring at their toes. The Gators started out their week practicing freestyle. They were masters at that so we quickly moved to backstroke. The Gators also learned about streamlines just like the Hawks and the Gophers. During backstroke the Gators worked on kicking with their arms in a streamline. They also learned that when doing backstroke arms to make sure their arms reach all the way up by their ears so they can pull as much water as possible to propel them forward. The All Sports group practiced kicking with a kick board, side breathing, freestyle arms, and streamlines. By the end of the week we started to practice kicking on our backs to prepare for backstroke. As always, we finished the week with Free Swim Friday! We will continue practicing these techniques throughout the duration of camp. I am looking forward to seeing all the campers improve and have fun at the pool!

As always, the Big Dogs were kept busy with different sports each day. To start off the week, we played basketball and <strong>Nolan </strong>and <strong>Owen</strong> both thoroughly enjoyed scoring points for their team to get them to championships. On Tuesday, it was our typical cheer day for the camp. <strong>Seth</strong> pulled through on the cheer and lead the team with much enthusiasm and Big Dog pride. In addition to basketball, during floor hockey on Wednesday, <strong>Grace</strong> swept the floor with her hockey skills and showed the boys who was boss. The kids were also able to play World Cup where <strong>Patrick</strong>, <strong>Ryan</strong>, and <strong>Franny</strong>, won both rounds as Germany with their impressive foot work. Typically Big Dogs aren''t participants of Art throughout the week but being as it is carnival week, they had to go to Art so they could make "Prize Bags" to hold the goodies that they win during the Carnival. <strong>Morgan</strong> and <strong>Matt P.</strong> made the best of it and made pretty sweet prize bags. Another thing that the team enjoyed a lot was cooling down in the AC during computer time. <strong>Matthew</strong> and <strong>Nick</strong> had lots of fun playing several different games throughout the allotted time frame. <strong>George</strong>, <strong>Zach</strong>, and <strong>Josh</strong> said that they exclusively appreciated pool time after being all hot and sweaty from all the sports that we did throughout the day. Finally we have our Camper of the Week. This camper not only had fun while participating in all the activities, but he also always had a smile on his face and tried his absolute hardest. Congratulations, <strong>Ethan</strong>!!

It culminated with a scavenger hunt to find the North Pole.

The most dramatic event was when <strong>Sage M.</strong> made a game winning goal during World Cup Soccer. <strong>Connor C.</strong> impressed everyone with his dribbling skills in soccer and his puck skills in street hockey. <strong>Anjay B</strong>. was also awesome at hockey while <strong>Matt E</strong>. was all over the puck and everything else in every sport we played. We do have some winners this week: <strong>Brady L</strong>. won in Final Four. <strong>Chris H.</strong> had a clutch catch in Jackpot to win that event. <strong>Tyler H</strong>. also impressed everyone with a great catch. <strong>Parker W.</strong> was chosen by his teammates to participate in the shootout in lacrosse.

Each of these campers made very good plays and got plenty of other campers out. <strong> Ryan G</strong>.,<strong> Justin H.</strong> and <strong>Alex W. </strong>played hard during our basketball tournament on Tuesday. All three of these campers helped to lead there team in the tournament and played very well in each of there games.  Then in pillow baseball <strong>Owen J</strong>., <strong>Owen P</strong>., and <strong>Harris L</strong>. all played very well.  They made crucial plays for each of there teams to either score runs or got plenty of outs for their teams.  The Big Dogs also had a chance to show their talents in Hollywood this week. <strong> George B.</strong> did a great job with his violin, and <strong>Ethan Y.</strong> was great while dancing to Fancy.  While playing run the bases <strong>Bennett L.,</strong> <strong>Matthew P.,</strong> and <strong>Kyle M.</strong> really excelled and had a great time.  In pool this week<strong> Josh P</strong>., <strong>Matt Y</strong>., and<strong> Zack W</strong>. really had a great time.  They came up with many different games to play in there free time and really listened well.  During ultimate Frisbee <strong>Pat S</strong>., <strong>Nick T</strong>., and <strong>Heather S</strong>. did great jobs making many crucial plays on both offense and defense.   In nine-square <strong>Seth W</strong>. and<strong> Tanner R</strong>. played great and advanced very far into the game.  Finally with such a big group it was tough to pick our camper of the week.  However, we eventually decided to award<strong> Deep M</strong>. with our camper of the week this week.  Deep moved up to the Big Dogs from the Gators and really excelled in many sports.  Not only this but he also always listened well and followed directions.  We hope to see you all again next week for our last week of camp!\r\n\r\nCounselors: <strong>James W. Chris M.</strong> and<strong> Joe M.</strong>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nSharks:\r\n\r\nThe Sharks continued the streak of having another great week of camp. We started off the week with some very competitive games in every single sport we played. We held our very own three on three basketball tournament within the group; <strong>Hunter</strong>, <strong>Luca</strong>, and <strong>Sage</strong> were members of the winning team, beating all of the other teams in the tournament. <strong> </strong><strong>Matt</strong> <strong>E. </strong>kept on draining basket after basket in the tournament, allowing for his team to advance to the finals. In another close game of hockey, <strong>Ryan </strong>lead his team to victory with some amazing saves as goalie. While playing tennis baseball, <strong>Major </strong>and <strong>Andrew </strong>contributed big when it was their turn to bat; they both produced great hits, allowing multiple runs to score and putting their team in the lead. <strong> </strong>During Steal the Bacon at pool, <strong>Dylan</strong> won every single time that his number was called. He used his quick swimming to get to the "bacon" before everyone else. <strong>Parker</strong> showed off his arm during Wall Ball this week. He got everyone out and eventually won the game. <strong>Tommy </strong>and <strong>Roman</strong> both scored runs for their team in Wiffle Ball and made amazing plays, getting people out left and right. In Ultimate Football, <strong>Tyler </strong>was always getting open for his teammates and made some crucial passes to get a touchdown. <strong>Quinn </strong>showed his accuracy during dodgeball this week. Every time we played, he was always getting the kids and counselors out. Even though he was new this week, <strong>Matt D. </strong>showed great sportsmanship in all of the games, and he was an exemplary camper. These are the reasons why we chose him to be camper of the week for the Sharks. We hope to see everyone next week for our final week of camp.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nSarah, Steve, and Chris Manno', 'All Sports', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'open', '', '40-revision-v1', '', '', '2014-08-08 18:03:49', '2014-08-08 18:03:49', '', 40, 'http://futurestarscamps.com/delval/?p=1512', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

Had a blast with this activity.  <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Ryan I</strong></span>. and <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Leah L</strong></span>. had fun making a milk splatter picture where they blew bubbles in milk with food color onto a piece of paper.  We continued to learn about fuel for fun and about the body and created a paper skeleton with some organs.  <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Grace R</strong></span>. really enjoyed learning about the anatomy of a person and creating their own person.  Then In Hollywood the kids created random phrases and put them onto note cards.  then they were put into a scene and given the card to read off making for a funny conversation!  <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Andrew B</span></strong>. and <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Alexis F</strong></span>. were hysterical in their skits.  Also in Hollywood we worked on our group dynamic and being able to communicate without talking.  this skill was put to the test in Kitty needs a corner.  where <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Madison S</span></strong>. and <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Catherine M</span></strong>. used eye contact to switch seats without the "Kitty" taking their seats.  Besides all the learning that was going on we played some intense sports.  <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Conner M</strong></span>. and <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Tyler E</strong>.</span> had a fantastic time playing dodge ball with the all sports groups to try and beat the counselors and girls team.  Another game that the campers played was hand ball where <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Emeric</strong> <strong>S</strong></span>. was a star out on the court.  During our game of knockout for a sport <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Abbey A</strong></span>. came out on top  as the victor.  after all of these sports and games the kids needed a chance to cool off and what better way would be swimming gin the pool.  <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Jaden H</span></strong>. was like a fish in the water swimming all around and having a grand old time.  A game the kids were introduced to on Tuesday was King Fisher where the kids swam side to side and trying to be to the first one out of the pool on the other side.  <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">William T</span></strong>. really enjoyed this swimming competition.  Then to begin the week the kids got to see a magic show where <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Isabelle B</span></strong>. Got to be a magician''s assistant and tried to pull the longest straw out of a bag where the magician then pulled out a straw 6 feet long!!  Finally we want to congratulate <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Max A</span></strong>. on being the Gators camper of the week.  He had good spirits and was always enthusiastic about everything we did.  Hopefully well see everyone back next week for our Carnival week.\r\n\r\nThanks Kevin and Erin\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>Week 3: Blue and Gold Olympics</strong> This week was blue and gold Olympics here at future stars and it was so much fun! All week, the gators competed against each other in a variety of activities. On Friday during the olympics, <strong>Tyler E.</strong> was the last one standing in water balloon hot potato and got a point for the gold team. One day when we played mat ball with the all sports groups and <strong>Emeric S.</strong> got a homerun! Art was a lot of fun for the group, and <strong>Leah E. </strong>really enjoyed Roll-a-Picasco. Also in art, we used coffee filters to create a tie-dye piece and <strong>Hannah E. </strong>used her creative skills to make a really cool one. In Hollywood, we did competitive guessing games. <strong>Danielle A.,</strong> <strong>Madison S. </strong>really enjoyed guessing counselors, famous musicians, and logos. This week we took a break from science and played a lot of games for the olympics. <strong>Ryan I. </strong>liked the tower stacking game and <strong>Leah L.</strong> and J<strong>aden H. </strong><strong> </strong>liked the game where you had to get a cookie in your mouth only using your facial muscles. <strong>Grace R. </strong>also enjoyed the pom-pom toss and <strong>James E. </strong>really liked the balloon toss that we did in science. For our usual camp routine we do a cheer every week and <strong>Delia M.</strong> created the gators'' cheer this week! Also with usual routine, we come up with an addition to the banana dance, and <strong>Isabelle B. </strong>created our dance! In swimming, <strong>Andrew B. </strong>worked on<strong> </strong> his breast stroke and really improved. Lastly, congratulations to our camper of the week, <strong>Alexis F</strong>.! She is always enthusiastic to participate and makes camp enjoyable for her peers. Your counselors, Laura, Kevin, and Quinn\r\n<h3><strong>Week 2: Down the Shore</strong></h3>\r\nDown the shore, the Gators had a lot of fun! This week, we have been doing many things involving the beach. In Hollywood, the campers are in the process of making a commercial about Cape May. <strong>Danielle A.</strong> and <strong>Leah E. </strong>helped the group come up with logo and slogan ideas. In Science, we learned about jellyfish, hermit crabs, and density differences between salt and fresh water. Then, with their jellyfish knowledge, they created a jellyfish in a bottle. <strong>Brianna S. </strong>and <strong>Alexis F.</strong> already knew a lot about jellyfish and had no problem explaining it to their peers. <strong>Andrew B. </strong>and <strong>Isabelle B.</strong> tested the density of different objects such as Model Magic, fruit snacks, marbles, and raisins. In Art, we continued with our beach theme and used many different resources to create a beach scene out of pasta. <strong>Hannah E.</strong> used her creativity to make both a beautiful sunset and a shark hat that looks like a shark attack. During the week, we played a lot of fun sports, such as capture the flag and final four. <strong>Delia</strong><strong> M.</strong> surprised the all sports group with her sneak attack to capture the flag for her team. <strong>Emeric S. </strong>and <strong>Maddie S.</strong> both made it to the final four during our intense game. In swim, <strong>Ryan I.</strong> showed great poise while doing backstroke and <strong>Grace M.</strong> carried her team on Water Polo Wednesday. We are happy to announce <strong>Grace R.</strong> as the camper of the week!!! She was kind to everyone and also brought a lot of enthusiasm to the group!! Can''t wait to see new and old faces next week during Blue and Gold Week!!! Your counselors, Laura, Tyler, and Grace\r\n<h3 style="text-align: left;"><strong><span style="color: #99cc00;"><span style="color: #ff9900;">Week 1: If I Ran The Rainforest</span></span></strong></h3>\r\n<p style="text-align: center;"><strong></strong><span style="color: #000000;">This first week of camp was awesome.  The theme of this first week was rain forest, and on Friday we had a scavenger hunt.  We had a lot of fun in science, hollywood, art ,and in every other activity we did.  In kickball <strong>Isabelle B.</strong> and <strong>Ella M. </strong>teamed up for an unbelievable off the body diving catch against the all sports.  Also in sport, <strong>Andrew B. </strong>showed that he can bring it in knock-out.  Finally in sport, <strong>Maddy G. </strong>and <strong>Emeric S. </strong>brought their game in dodgeball, even getting some of the counselors out! In art this week we created animals and plants that you would find in the rain forest.  <strong>Alexis F.</strong> made a very cute monkey with oil pastels.  Also, <strong>Maddie S. </strong>made a beautiful flower out of tissue paper.  In the pool this week we all did lessons and had fun during free swim.  <strong>Vincent B.</strong> helped show everyone how to properly do backstroke.  <strong>Danielle A. </strong>also did a great job going right from stream line to freestyle without even slowing down!  In Hollywood this week we put on a play and <strong>Tyler E.</strong>, who played the lead role as the frog, did an amazing job.  Also in the play, <strong>Ryan I., </strong>the sloth, did a great job singing his solo.  <strong>Hannah E. </strong>and <strong>Grace </strong><strong>R. </strong>showed everyone just how to play a very cool computer game.  Each week at camp every group comes up with a camper of the week.  This camper shows great sportsmanship, always listens, and is a great role model for the other campers to look up to.  This week the gators camper of the week is <strong>Leah E.</strong>!!!  She participated in every activity and always gave her best try, even when she might not have been the best.  We hope to see everyone later on in the summer for more camp fun!!!</span></p>\r\n<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #000000;">Your counselors,</span></p>\r\n<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #000000;">Helen and Tyler </span></p>\r\n\r\n<h3 style="color: #00ffff;"></h3>\r\n<span style="color: #000000;">                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              </span>', 'Gators', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'open', '', '39-revision-v1', '', '', '2015-07-31 17:20:05', '2015-07-31 17:20:05', '', 39, 'http://futurestarscamps.com/delval/?p=1924', 0, 'revision', '', 0),

During the rest of the week each group worked on various swim techniques. \r\n\r\nThe Ducks and Dragons practiced their freestyle kick during Red Light Green Light and Simon Says. They were then paired up with a counselor where they practiced their kicking, blowing bubbles, floating on their backs and freestyle arms. They made sure to practice big arms for freestyle so they could pull as much water as possible.\r\n\r\nThe Hawks and Gophers started out the week working on freestyle. They were able to practice their freestyle kicks with a kick board, blowing bubbles, side breathing and freestyle arms. They focused on making big arm scoops so that they could pull as much water as possible. Once they mastered that they learned a trick to going faster in the water. They learned about streamlines where they stack both hands over top of each other and then put their arms over their heads. They use this when pushing off the wall. At the end of the week the Hawks and Gophers started to practice their backstroke kicks making sure to keep their heads back facing the sky and not starring at their toes.\r\n\r\nThe Gators started out their week practicing freestyle. They were masters at that so we quickly moved to backstroke. The Gators also learned about streamlines just like the Hawks and the Gophers. During backstroke the Gators worked on kicking with their arms in a streamline. They also learned that when doing backstroke arms to make sure their arms reach all the way up by their ears so they can pull as much water as possible to propel them forward. \r\n\r\nThe All Sports group practiced kicking with a kick board, side breathing, freestyle arms, and streamlines. By the end of the week we started to practice kicking on our backs to prepare for backstroke. \r\n\r\nAs always, we finished the week with free swim Friday! We will continue practicing these techniques throughout the duration of camp.

Throughout the week the kids were preparing for our final camp show and that took a lot of sweat and tears. To start of the week, we had an awesome reptile show leaving <strong>Danielle </strong>in awe. Aforementioned we put the kids through intense practice for our camp show. We had sweet solo auditions where Theresa had a difficult time deciding on who would get the solo but in the end, <strong>Maddie</strong> and <strong>Sidne''s</strong> auditions swept the floor landing them with the solo parts. For the Gator Dance, the kids jam out to "We Go Together" from Grease where <strong>Zoey </strong>showed off her sweet dance moves while <strong>Ryan</strong> killed it with his solo. <strong>Ella</strong> impressed all of the counselors with how fast she was able to learn the dance moves being as she was absent for the initial choreography. Even though <strong>Forrest</strong>, <strong>Hannah</strong>, <strong>Abbey</strong>, and <strong>Max</strong> knew they weren''t going to be present at the show, still presented much enthusiasm when their peers were practicing. When we weren''t busy preparing for the show we were able to fit in a few games of knock-out. <strong>Brynn</strong> and <strong>Emeric</strong> were our reining champions beating even their counselors at several intense games. Another game we had the kids play was Pillow-Polo Baseball. <strong>Grace</strong> slammed the ball into the outfield shocking both her teammates and the opposing team. We also had the chance to play Dodgeball with the Sharks where <strong>Tanner</strong> went hard dodging and throwing balls like maniac. On Thursday, we had a banana day where <strong>Isabelle</strong> convinced the group to do "Bombas-bananas" and rocked out while they all pointed to her. Last but not least, we have our camper of the week. This camper was always listening, participating, and including everyone around him. He was a good sport and a great camper to have in our group. Congratulations <strong>Nolan</strong>!! This concludes our wonderful summer for 2014; we hope your kids had a great time (I know the counselors did) and we hope to see them back next summer! Have a great school year!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria, Chris, and Harris\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #339966;">Da Vinci Week!</span></h1>\r\n<p style="text-align: left;">This week at Future Stars was Da Vinci Science week! The Gators had a great time learning about Da Vinci and inventing things for themselves. We did a lot of fun things in science this week. <strong><span style="color: #000000;">Sidne </span></strong>and <strong>Kenzie</strong> experimented with gobstoppers and skittles in water. They had to use their science knowledge to create hypotheses for what might happen to the different candy once in water. The outcome was very cool! Also in science this week, the group was given the task to create a frame structure out of newspaper.<strong> Tanner, Tyler</strong>, and <strong>Ryan</strong> created a very sturdy structure. Their structure was able to hold the most marbles out of the entire group at 192 marbles! On Friday, the group had to use their imagination to make another structure with only paper, straws, paperclips, and tape. <strong>Abbey</strong> and<strong> Devlin</strong> worked well with their team and gave awesome suggestions on how to make the structure great. In the pool this week, the gators worked on their butterfly stroke. <strong>Ilene</strong> did an amazing job and was a natural at it. The group also had a blast playing steal the bacon in the pool, and <strong>Jimmy, Isabelle and Danielle</strong> were great competitors for their team.  In Hollywood this week, the group showed off their many amazing talents. <strong>Madison G.</strong> shared her impressive coin collection as well as did a cool cup stacking trick.<strong> Addison</strong> played a fantastic rendition of Brave by Sara Barrellies on her viola. <strong>Caterina</strong> beautifully sang Red by Taylor Swift. Boy do we have some talented campers! We had some fun times in sport and game this week, and played with the Sharks a lot. <strong>Kya</strong> and <strong>Morgan</strong> had some awesome hits during a game of tennis baseball. In art this week, the campers tried their hand at some famous art pieces. The first thing the gators worked on was their own version of The Scream by Edvard Munch. <strong>Andrew, Nolan, and Maddie S.</strong> drew beautiful masterpieces, with the "scream" part being a picture of themselves! Also in art, the group created The Starry Night. <strong>Max and Forrest</strong> did a great job creating this famous art piece out of construction paper pieces. Lastly, congratulation to our camper of the week, <strong>Emeric</strong>! Emeric is always involved, listens to directions, and looks excited to be at camp every day.</p>\r\n\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Arctic Week!</span></h1>\r\n<span style="color: #000000;">This week at Future Stars was Arctic week! We had a great time learning about the Arctic vironment and the animals that live there. In art earlier this week, <strong>Hannah</strong>  and<strong> Nolan</strong> made fantastic melting snowmen y fading in white and blue colors. In science, <strong>Andrew</strong>,<strong> Tyler</strong> and <strong>Emeric</strong> had a blast making their own snowflakes by putting packing peanuts in water and sticking them together. Because it was so chilly this week, the gators had to swim with the pandas for part of the week. Everyone was very cooperative and <strong>Kenzie</strong> and <strong>Isabelle</strong> were very helpful with the pandas during their swim lessons. We had an exciting scavenger hunt for the North Pole in Hollywood on Tuesday. <strong>Ella</strong> and <strong>Deepesh</strong> were wonderful at finding the clues and making connections to where the next location would be. We got to interact with the all-sport groups during our sport and game this week, and<strong> Kya</strong> was a great competitor during our game of mat ball. Also in science, the gators experimented with the differences between polar bear fur and whale flubber. To do this, <strong>Jimmy</strong> and <strong>Ilene</strong> put a bag of ice on top of a bag of cotton balls on their hand. They then put their hand in a bag of Crisco and did the same thing. Also in art this week, the group glued string on paper that was then covered in foil. The next day they colored the foil with permanent markers. <strong>Danielle</strong> was very creative with her art piece and the end result was really cool. On Monday, <strong>Sidne</strong> had a great time playing nine-square with her teammates during our game time.<strong> Caterina</strong> worked with her group in Hollywood to do a sort of group charades. Also during the game this week, the group played world cup soccer and <strong>Addison</strong> was a great competitor, even advancing to the finals. Lastly, congratulations to our camper of the week,<strong> Forrest</strong>! Forrest was only here for half the week but every day he came in with a smile and great contributor to all of the activities. </span>\r\n\r\nSincerely,\r\n\r\nLaura and Steve\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Carnival Week!</span></h1>\r\nThis week at Future Stars was Carnival Week! The week started out amazingly with a one-man circus performing on Monday! It ended with the camp carnival on Friday! <strong>Isabelle </strong>made a beautiful pinwheel designed with flowers in Art. <strong>Madison </strong>made her pinwheel super colorful with an awesome tie-dye pattern. <strong>Hannah </strong>painted a great carnival scene on Thursday and Friday! In Science, <strong>Tyler</strong> had a great time playing tug-of-war and learning about physics. <strong>Tanner </strong>learned a lot about matter when he played with Oobleck, which is both a solid and a liquid. <strong>Annabel </strong>and <strong>Kate </strong>had a great time learning about chemical reactions by blowing up a balloon with vinegar and baking soda. They chose to sit in the splash zone! <strong>Andrew </strong>had a great time all week playing carnival games in Hollywood. <strong>Caterina </strong>showed off her fabulous acting skills when we played competitive charades in Hollywood. When the Gators played sports this week, <strong>Nolan </strong>showed off his basketball skills during a few rounds of knock-out! <strong>Grace </strong>did a great job scoring some goals for her team during handball. <strong>Emeric </strong>had an awesome time learning a new sport when we played ultimate Frisbee. <strong>Danielle </strong>loved sliding down the giant, inflatable waterslide on Thursday! This week the Gators'' Camper of the Week was <strong>Julia</strong>! She did an awesome job all week listening to directions and being nice to everyone at camp. We will miss her when she goes back to Spain! We look forward to three more amazing weeks of camp!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nEleanor, Nolan &amp; Steve\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #339966;">Safari</span> Week!</h1>\r\nThis week was Safari Week! We had Karaoke, Jensen Music, a campus-wide scavenger hunt and Learn, Listen, Play! It was a week of adventure as we learned about the African Savannah, its wildlife, and the food chain. <strong>Caterina </strong>led her group in depth presentation on giraffes, which was then creatively presented by her, <strong>Julia</strong>, <strong>Aubrey </strong>and <strong> Kate</strong> as if it were a news report. <strong>Hannah </strong>drew an awesome Zebra on her group''s poster presentation. All the presentations were great and we learned some really interesting stuff. In art, we drew some of the animals we were researching in science and used oil pastels to bring them to life. <strong>Abbey''s </strong>psychedelic elephant and <strong>Madison G''s</strong> lounging leopard should be seen by every pair of eyes. <strong>Max </strong>had impressive creativity in art, thinking outside the box.<strong> </strong> The campers rocked the stage with karaoke and had some good laughs while doing it. <strong>Madison S </strong>sang out a Taylor Swift song and <strong>Franny</strong>, though he didn''t know all the lyrics to the particular song, had an unparalleled stage presence. We also enjoyed playing freeze tag where all the counselors were the "freezers". <strong>Annabel </strong>and <strong>Sidne </strong>created strategies and led the team to defeat the counselors. <strong>Emeric </strong>was always one of the last campers unfrozen. <strong>Deep </strong>enjoyed constructing beats on the djembe drum, while <strong>Jaden </strong>created new rhythms on the conga drums in Learn, Listen, Play. <strong>Tyler </strong>and <strong>Ella </strong>were like fish in the pool, often being the demonstration for the correct way to do different strokes we are learning. <strong>Tanner </strong>was the victor in an intense game of HORSE. <strong>Isabelle </strong>and <strong>Andrew </strong>were both scoring many points for there teams during a game of Mattball. Our camper of the week this week is <strong>Tanner. </strong>His positive participation and encouragement of others is an example to all of us. He is a hard worker and respects his fellow campers and his counselors. It was a pleasure to have him in our group. Another great week for the Gators! And as always, we''re looking forward to seeing you next week!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nAlison, Eleanor and Cory\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Blue <span style="color: #000000;">&amp; <span style="color: #ffff00;">Gold <span style="color: #000000;">Week</span></span></span></span></h1>\r\nThis week here at Future Stars we had Blue and Gold Week! Blue and Gold Week is the week where the counselors split up the group into two teams, blue and gold, respectively. It is a week filled with fun and friendly competition. Not only were we competitive in sports, but we were also able to incorporate some competition into our other daily activities. For example, in Hollywood, we had a special guest, Frank, who taught the kids different rhythms they could beat on their drums. During this time, <strong>Tyler</strong> and <strong>Ryan</strong> had a blast "dancing to the beat of their own drums". When we didn''t have our special guest, the kids were entertained with a game of "Guess Who" where Theresa provided pictures of famous people and the counselors at camp and the two teams had to guess who it was, first. <strong>Jimmy</strong>, on the blue team helped lead his team to victory; however, <strong>Isabelle</strong> and <strong>Hannah</strong> didn''t make it easy for him being as they were both forces to be reckoned with on the gold team. Moving on to Science, this week the kids were able to observe the beautiful colors that surround us everyday. To start off the week, Tricia had the kids watch a Brain Pop that talked all about tinting and blending colors together. After the video, <strong>Sidne</strong> proved to us that she had a full understanding of the material as she colored a coffee filter with markers and then watered it down and watched the colors bleed out. Also in Science class, we took flowers, cut their stems, and stuck them into color-dyed water and watch them slowly turn. <strong>Jaden</strong>, <strong>Nolan</strong>, and <strong>Abbey</strong> really enjoyed watching our flowers go from white to blue and yellow (for Blue and Gold Week)--it was super cool. As we progress into Art, the kids had a lot of fun sketching and coloring in their drawings. Although at first, <strong>Franny</strong> had a hard time sketching his owl, he persevered and managed to draw an awesome owl; a sketch he could be proud of. Once warmed up, the kids watched a video that helped them draw an awesome fire-breathing dragon. <strong>Maddie</strong> and <strong>Emeric</strong> drew awesome dragons and colored them in beautifully, using a large array of colors. We were lucky enough to have more than one special guest this week being as on Monday and Tuesday, professional fencers came in and did some demonstrations. Following the informational session, the kids were able to fence themselves, and learn the special techniques behind fencing. <strong>Samantha</strong> and <strong>Max</strong> had a blast fencing one another with both the foil and the saber. Because this week is in fact Blue and Gold week, the kids had  a chance on Thursday to participate in several relay races where <strong>Andrew</strong> kicked some butt and helped his team win crucial points. Last but definitely not least, we have our camper of the week, <strong>Danielle</strong>. She was an amazing listener, put her heart and soul into everything she did, and never once acted out. She is a role model to her fellow Gators and it was a pleasure to be her counselor this week. We hope the kids had fun and we can''t wait to see you back here next week!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria and Cory\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff6600;">~Fuel for Fun~</span></h1>\r\nTwo weeks down and six more to go! This week at Future Stars our main focus was on learning about nutrition and eating healthy! All of our activities in Art, Science, and Hollywood had to do with keeping our bodies in shape. In Art we made macaroni skeletons and made our own healthy food plates. <strong>Kenzie</strong> and <strong>Grace</strong> showed us how dedicated they were to eating healthy as they put all the food groups onto their plates. In Science we were able to make our own chocolate using chocolate chips, aluminum plates, and the sun. <strong>Isabelle </strong>devoured her chocolate and threw in a healthy banana to the mix. In Science we also learned how to read the nutrition facts on products you can buy at the store and <strong>Tyler</strong> and <strong>Jimmy</strong> worked together to decipher what meant what and what ingredients were healthy and what which ones weren''t. As we move on to Hollywood, Mrs. Theresa provided us with a bundle of different games that included fruits, vegetables, and crazy songs that taught us about what foods go with what. As the kids competed to see who knew their fruits best, <strong>Emeric </strong>came out on top as he was our winner for several intense rounds. When we weren''t in Art, Science, or Hollywood, we were playing in the gym and running around. <strong>Kya</strong> showed her team spirit and awesome kick during World Cup which helped her move on the one of the last rounds. However, with <strong>Danielle</strong>''s awesome foot work, she moved on to the final round and was crowned our champion. In addition to playing World Cup, we also had the kids play Knock Out. During Knock Out <strong>Ryan</strong> and <strong>Morgan</strong> sunk the basketball more than once making them both forces to be reckoned with. Since this week was such a scorcher, to cool off we spent time in the computer lab. Every time we would walk into the air conditioning, <strong>Maddie</strong> and <strong>Tanner</strong> couldn''t wait to just dive in and play games of their choice during our down time. Another way we were able to simmer down was during our much appreciated pool time. This week we were lucky and were able to play Water Polo both on Monday and on Wednesday. Both of those days, <strong>Hannah</strong> and <strong>Andrew</strong> dominated and proved their defensive and offensive skills. Last but certainly not least, we have <strong>Caterina</strong>, our camper of the week. This week we needed some extra hands and she, without complaint, stepped up to the plate and showed us she had what it takes to be a counselor. Not only was she responsible, but she also managed to have fun at the same time-- the number one rule at camp. Thank you, Caterina for helping out! We had a great week here at Future Stars and we can''t wait to see all of your faces next week! <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Happy <span style="color: #000000;">Fourth of</span><span style="color: #000000;"> <span style="color: #3366ff;">July!</span></span></span></strong>\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria and Kevin\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #339966;">Happy Green Earth Week Gators!</span> </strong></h1>\r\n<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" alt="" src="http://www.esri.com/news/arcuser/0610/graphics/nospin_1-lg.jpg" width="319" height="308" /></p>\r\nWe had a wonderful first week at camp! On Monday in Science we started a green observation journal by making the cover of our books, <strong>Caterina</strong> and her brother <strong>Andrew</strong> paid extra special attention to the details of their covers by doing leaf rubs to decorate. For sport we played the All Sports in a game of kickball where <strong>Emeric</strong> really shined, as he kicked home-run after home-run. Tuesday is Cheer Day, in Hollywood we had to come up with a cheer to show our Gator spirit! <strong>Danielle</strong> and <strong>Ella</strong> came up with and led the Gators in an amazing cheer! In Science we put our bird brains to the test in a contest to see who could build the best bird nest. <strong>Isabelle</strong> and <strong>Grace</strong> demonstrated awesome team work, building the perfect home. During game we played knock-out where<strong> Tanner</strong> and <strong>Tyler </strong>were victorious. On Wednesday in Art class we made origami frogs, <strong>Nolan </strong>used his knowledge of the craft to demonstrate to the rest of the group how to make the perfect frog. Wednesday was also Banana Day! <strong>Forrest</strong> really rocked it out showing tremendous spirit and enthusiasm during every group''s banana dance.  On Thursday in Science we used recycled materials to create and decorate our own paper! <strong>Sidne</strong> showed her creative side as she added special touches to her paper. In Hollywood we did Green Earth Week inspired PSAs, <strong>Madison</strong> proved that her voice is radio worthy with a fabulous reading. Our camper of the week, is new comer, <strong>Noah</strong>!

Throughout the week the kids were preparing for our final camp show and that took a lot of sweat and tears. To start of the week, we had an awesome reptile show leaving <strong>Danielle </strong>in awe. Aforementioned we put the kids through intense practice for our camp show. We had sweet solo auditions where Theresa had a difficult time deciding on who would get the solo but in the end, <strong>Maddie</strong> and <strong>Sidne''s</strong> auditions swept the floor landing them with the solo parts. For the Gator Dance, the kids jam out to "We Go Together" from Grease where <strong>Zoey </strong>showed off her sweet dance moves while <strong>Ryan</strong> killed it with his solo. <strong>Ella</strong> impressed all of the counselors with how fast she was able to learn the dance moves being as she was absent for the initial choreography. Even though <strong>Forrest</strong>, <strong>Hannah</strong>, <strong>Abbey</strong>, and <strong>Max</strong> knew they weren''t going to be present at the show, still presented much enthusiasm when their peers were practicing. When we weren''t busy preparing for the show we were able to fit in a few games of knock-out. <strong>Brynn</strong> and <strong>Emeric</strong> were our reining champions beating even their counselors at several intense games. Another game we had the kids play was Pillow-Polo Baseball. <strong>Grace</strong> slammed the ball into the outfield shocking both her teammates and the opposing team. We also had the chance to play Dodgeball with the Sharks where <strong>Tanner</strong> went hard dodging and throwing balls like maniac. While some showed intensity during sports, <strong>Andrew</strong> had a blast playing SuperStar Football during computers. To cool off, we had a whole week of free swim where the kids went wild and entertained themselves with different pool games. For example, <strong>Jimmy</strong> and <strong>Tyler</strong> started a sweet game of Taps which left all the kids wanting to join in. On Thursday, we had a banana day where <strong>Isabelle</strong> convinced the group to do "Bombas-bananas" and rocked out while they all pointed to her. Last but not least, we have our camper of the week. This camper was always listening, participating, and including everyone around him. He was a good sport and a great camper to have in our group. Congratulations <strong>Nolan</strong>!! This concludes our wonderful summer for 2014; we hope your kids had a great time (I know the counselors did) and we hope to see them back next summer! Have a great school year!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria, Chris, and Harris\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #339966;">Da Vinci Week!</span></h1>\r\n<p style="text-align: left;">This week at Future Stars was Da Vinci Science week! The Gators had a great time learning about Da Vinci and inventing things for themselves. We did a lot of fun things in science this week. <strong><span style="color: #000000;">Sidne </span></strong>and <strong>Kenzie</strong> experimented with gobstoppers and skittles in water. They had to use their science knowledge to create hypotheses for what might happen to the different candy once in water. The outcome was very cool! Also in science this week, the group was given the task to create a frame structure out of newspaper.<strong> Tanner, Tyler</strong>, and <strong>Ryan</strong> created a very sturdy structure. Their structure was able to hold the most marbles out of the entire group at 192 marbles! On Friday, the group had to use their imagination to make another structure with only paper, straws, paperclips, and tape. <strong>Abbey</strong> and<strong> Devlin</strong> worked well with their team and gave awesome suggestions on how to make the structure great. In the pool this week, the gators worked on their butterfly stroke. <strong>Ilene</strong> did an amazing job and was a natural at it. The group also had a blast playing steal the bacon in the pool, and <strong>Jimmy, Isabelle and Danielle</strong> were great competitors for their team.  In Hollywood this week, the group showed off their many amazing talents. <strong>Madison G.</strong> shared her impressive coin collection as well as did a cool cup stacking trick.<strong> Addison</strong> played a fantastic rendition of Brave by Sara Barrellies on her viola. <strong>Caterina</strong> beautifully sang Red by Taylor Swift. Boy do we have some talented campers! We had some fun times in sport and game this week, and played with the Sharks a lot. <strong>Kya</strong> and <strong>Morgan</strong> had some awesome hits during a game of tennis baseball. In art this week, the campers tried their hand at some famous art pieces. The first thing the gators worked on was their own version of The Scream by Edvard Munch. <strong>Andrew, Nolan, and Maddie S.</strong> drew beautiful masterpieces, with the "scream" part being a picture of themselves! Also in art, the group created The Starry Night. <strong>Max and Forrest</strong> did a great job creating this famous art piece out of construction paper pieces. Lastly, congratulation to our camper of the week, <strong>Emeric</strong>! Emeric is always involved, listens to directions, and looks excited to be at camp every day.</p>\r\n\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Arctic Week!</span></h1>\r\n<span style="color: #000000;">This week at Future Stars was Arctic week! We had a great time learning about the Arctic vironment and the animals that live there. In art earlier this week, <strong>Hannah</strong>  and<strong> Nolan</strong> made fantastic melting snowmen y fading in white and blue colors. In science, <strong>Andrew</strong>,<strong> Tyler</strong> and <strong>Emeric</strong> had a blast making their own snowflakes by putting packing peanuts in water and sticking them together. Because it was so chilly this week, the gators had to swim with the pandas for part of the week. Everyone was very cooperative and <strong>Kenzie</strong> and <strong>Isabelle</strong> were very helpful with the pandas during their swim lessons. We had an exciting scavenger hunt for the North Pole in Hollywood on Tuesday. <strong>Ella</strong> and <strong>Deepesh</strong> were wonderful at finding the clues and making connections to where the next location would be. We got to interact with the all-sport groups during our sport and game this week, and<strong> Kya</strong> was a great competitor during our game of mat ball. Also in science, the gators experimented with the differences between polar bear fur and whale flubber. To do this, <strong>Jimmy</strong> and <strong>Ilene</strong> put a bag of ice on top of a bag of cotton balls on their hand. They then put their hand in a bag of Crisco and did the same thing. Also in art this week, the group glued string on paper that was then covered in foil. The next day they colored the foil with permanent markers. <strong>Danielle</strong> was very creative with her art piece and the end result was really cool. On Monday, <strong>Sidne</strong> had a great time playing nine-square with her teammates during our game time.<strong> Caterina</strong> worked with her group in Hollywood to do a sort of group charades. Also during the game this week, the group played world cup soccer and <strong>Addison</strong> was a great competitor, even advancing to the finals. Lastly, congratulations to our camper of the week,<strong> Forrest</strong>! Forrest was only here for half the week but every day he came in with a smile and great contributor to all of the activities. </span>\r\n\r\nSincerely,\r\n\r\nLaura and Steve\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Carnival Week!</span></h1>\r\nThis week at Future Stars was Carnival Week! The week started out amazingly with a one-man circus performing on Monday! It ended with the camp carnival on Friday! <strong>Isabelle </strong>made a beautiful pinwheel designed with flowers in Art. <strong>Madison </strong>made her pinwheel super colorful with an awesome tie-dye pattern. <strong>Hannah </strong>painted a great carnival scene on Thursday and Friday! In Science, <strong>Tyler</strong> had a great time playing tug-of-war and learning about physics. <strong>Tanner </strong>learned a lot about matter when he played with Oobleck, which is both a solid and a liquid. <strong>Annabel </strong>and <strong>Kate </strong>had a great time learning about chemical reactions by blowing up a balloon with vinegar and baking soda. They chose to sit in the splash zone! <strong>Andrew </strong>had a great time all week playing carnival games in Hollywood. <strong>Caterina </strong>showed off her fabulous acting skills when we played competitive charades in Hollywood. When the Gators played sports this week, <strong>Nolan </strong>showed off his basketball skills during a few rounds of knock-out! <strong>Grace </strong>did a great job scoring some goals for her team during handball. <strong>Emeric </strong>had an awesome time learning a new sport when we played ultimate Frisbee. <strong>Danielle </strong>loved sliding down the giant, inflatable waterslide on Thursday! This week the Gators'' Camper of the Week was <strong>Julia</strong>! She did an awesome job all week listening to directions and being nice to everyone at camp. We will miss her when she goes back to Spain! We look forward to three more amazing weeks of camp!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nEleanor, Nolan &amp; Steve\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #339966;">Safari</span> Week!</h1>\r\nThis week was Safari Week! We had Karaoke, Jensen Music, a campus-wide scavenger hunt and Learn, Listen, Play! It was a week of adventure as we learned about the African Savannah, its wildlife, and the food chain. <strong>Caterina </strong>led her group in depth presentation on giraffes, which was then creatively presented by her, <strong>Julia</strong>, <strong>Aubrey </strong>and <strong> Kate</strong> as if it were a news report. <strong>Hannah </strong>drew an awesome Zebra on her group''s poster presentation. All the presentations were great and we learned some really interesting stuff. In art, we drew some of the animals we were researching in science and used oil pastels to bring them to life. <strong>Abbey''s </strong>psychedelic elephant and <strong>Madison G''s</strong> lounging leopard should be seen by every pair of eyes. <strong>Max </strong>had impressive creativity in art, thinking outside the box.<strong> </strong> The campers rocked the stage with karaoke and had some good laughs while doing it. <strong>Madison S </strong>sang out a Taylor Swift song and <strong>Franny</strong>, though he didn''t know all the lyrics to the particular song, had an unparalleled stage presence. We also enjoyed playing freeze tag where all the counselors were the "freezers". <strong>Annabel </strong>and <strong>Sidne </strong>created strategies and led the team to defeat the counselors. <strong>Emeric </strong>was always one of the last campers unfrozen. <strong>Deep </strong>enjoyed constructing beats on the djembe drum, while <strong>Jaden </strong>created new rhythms on the conga drums in Learn, Listen, Play. <strong>Tyler </strong>and <strong>Ella </strong>were like fish in the pool, often being the demonstration for the correct way to do different strokes we are learning. <strong>Tanner </strong>was the victor in an intense game of HORSE. <strong>Isabelle </strong>and <strong>Andrew </strong>were both scoring many points for there teams during a game of Mattball. Our camper of the week this week is <strong>Tanner. </strong>His positive participation and encouragement of others is an example to all of us. He is a hard worker and respects his fellow campers and his counselors. It was a pleasure to have him in our group. Another great week for the Gators! And as always, we''re looking forward to seeing you next week!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nAlison, Eleanor and Cory\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #3366ff;">Blue <span style="color: #000000;">&amp; <span style="color: #ffff00;">Gold <span style="color: #000000;">Week</span></span></span></span></h1>\r\nThis week here at Future Stars we had Blue and Gold Week! Blue and Gold Week is the week where the counselors split up the group into two teams, blue and gold, respectively. It is a week filled with fun and friendly competition. Not only were we competitive in sports, but we were also able to incorporate some competition into our other daily activities. For example, in Hollywood, we had a special guest, Frank, who taught the kids different rhythms they could beat on their drums. During this time, <strong>Tyler</strong> and <strong>Ryan</strong> had a blast "dancing to the beat of their own drums". When we didn''t have our special guest, the kids were entertained with a game of "Guess Who" where Theresa provided pictures of famous people and the counselors at camp and the two teams had to guess who it was, first. <strong>Jimmy</strong>, on the blue team helped lead his team to victory; however, <strong>Isabelle</strong> and <strong>Hannah</strong> didn''t make it easy for him being as they were both forces to be reckoned with on the gold team. Moving on to Science, this week the kids were able to observe the beautiful colors that surround us everyday. To start off the week, Tricia had the kids watch a Brain Pop that talked all about tinting and blending colors together. After the video, <strong>Sidne</strong> proved to us that she had a full understanding of the material as she colored a coffee filter with markers and then watered it down and watched the colors bleed out. Also in Science class, we took flowers, cut their stems, and stuck them into color-dyed water and watch them slowly turn. <strong>Jaden</strong>, <strong>Nolan</strong>, and <strong>Abbey</strong> really enjoyed watching our flowers go from white to blue and yellow (for Blue and Gold Week)--it was super cool. As we progress into Art, the kids had a lot of fun sketching and coloring in their drawings. Although at first, <strong>Franny</strong> had a hard time sketching his owl, he persevered and managed to draw an awesome owl; a sketch he could be proud of. Once warmed up, the kids watched a video that helped them draw an awesome fire-breathing dragon. <strong>Maddie</strong> and <strong>Emeric</strong> drew awesome dragons and colored them in beautifully, using a large array of colors. We were lucky enough to have more than one special guest this week being as on Monday and Tuesday, professional fencers came in and did some demonstrations. Following the informational session, the kids were able to fence themselves, and learn the special techniques behind fencing. <strong>Samantha</strong> and <strong>Max</strong> had a blast fencing one another with both the foil and the saber. Because this week is in fact Blue and Gold week, the kids had  a chance on Thursday to participate in several relay races where <strong>Andrew</strong> kicked some butt and helped his team win crucial points. Last but definitely not least, we have our camper of the week, <strong>Danielle</strong>. She was an amazing listener, put her heart and soul into everything she did, and never once acted out. She is a role model to her fellow Gators and it was a pleasure to be her counselor this week. We hope the kids had fun and we can''t wait to see you back here next week!\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nMaria and Cory\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"></h1>\r\n<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff6600;">~Fuel for Fun~</span></h1>\r\nTwo weeks down and six more to go! This week at Future Stars our main focus was on learning about nutrition and eating healthy! All of our activities in Art, Science, and Hollywood had to do with keeping our bodies in shape. In Art we made macaroni skeletons and made our own healthy food plates. <strong>Kenzie</strong> and <strong>Grace</strong> showed us how dedicated they were to eating healthy as they put all the food groups onto their plates. In Science we were able to make our own chocolate using chocolate chips, aluminum plates, and the sun. <strong>Isabelle </strong>devoured her chocolate and threw in a healthy banana to the mix. In Science we also learned how to read the nutrition facts on products you can buy at the store and <strong>Tyler</strong> and <strong>Jimmy</strong> worked together to decipher what meant what and what ingredients were healthy and what which ones weren''t. As we move on to Hollywood, Mrs. Theresa provided us with a bundle of different games that included fruits, vegetables, and crazy songs that taught us about what foods go with what. As the kids competed to see who knew their fruits best, <strong>Emeric </strong>came out on top as he was our winner for several intense rounds. When we weren''t in Art, Science, or Hollywood, we were playing in the gym and running around. <strong>Kya</strong> showed her team spirit and awesome kick during World Cup which helped her move on the one of the last rounds. However, with <strong>Danielle</strong>''s awesome foot work, she moved on to the final round and was crowned our champion. In addition to playing World Cup, we also had the kids play Knock Out. During Knock Out <strong>Ryan</strong> and <strong>Morgan</strong> sunk the basketball more than once making them both forces to be reckoned with. Since this week was such a scorcher, to cool off we spent time in the computer lab. Every time we would walk into the air conditioning, <strong>Maddie</strong> and <strong>Tanner</strong> couldn''t wait to just dive in and play games of their choice during our down time. Another way we were able to simmer down was during our much appreciated pool time. This week we were lucky and were able to play Water Polo both on Monday and on Wednesday. Both of those days, <strong>Hannah</strong> and <strong>Andrew</strong> dominated and proved their defensive and offensive skills. Last but certainly not least, we have <strong>Caterina</strong>, our camper of the week. This week we needed some extra hands and she, without complaint, stepped up to the plate and showed us she had what it takes to be a counselor.

During swimming, the campers worked on their freestyle and backstroke, while mixing in some fun water activities like the underwater and penny challenges. <strong>Sarah P.</strong> did really well in the penny challenge and collected the most pennies. Also, <strong>Addison L.</strong> and <strong>Tyler P.</strong> demonstrated their freestyle technique and set a good example for their peers in the pool. During Hollywood this week, the campers did a variety of fun activities, which include camping , the bear cave, and musical chairs. <strong>Amanda S.</strong> and <strong>Tessa G.</strong> had a lot fun singing along to the bear song and playing in the bear cave we made in the Hollywood room.

We started off the week with some very competitive games in every single sport we played. We held our very own three on three basketball tournament within the group; <strong>Hunter</strong>, <strong>Luca</strong>, and <strong>Sage</strong> were members of the winning team, beating all of the other teams in the tournament. <strong> </strong><strong>Matt</strong> <strong>E. </strong>kept on draining basket after basket in the tournament, allowing for his team to advance to the finals. In another close game of hockey, <strong>Ryan </strong>lead his team to victory with some amazing saves as goalie. While playing tennis baseball, <strong>Major </strong>and <strong>Andrew </strong>contributed big when it was their turn to bat; they both produced great hits, allowing multiple runs to score and putting their team in the lead. <strong> </strong>During Steal the Bacon at pool, <strong>Dylan</strong> won every single time that his number was called. He used his quick swimming to get to the "bacon" before everyone else. <strong>Parker</strong> showed off his arm during Wall Ball this week. He got everyone out and eventually won the game. <strong>Tommy </strong>and <strong>Roman</strong> both scored runs for their team in Wiffle Ball and made amazing plays, getting people out left and right. In Ultimate Football, <strong>Tyler </strong>was always getting open for his teammates and made some crucial passes to get a touchdown. <strong>Quinn </strong>showed his accuracy during dodgeball this week. Every time we played, he was always getting the kids and counselors out. Even though he was new this week, <strong>Matt D. </strong>showed great sportsmanship in all of the games, and he was an exemplary camper. These are the reasons why we chose him to be camper of the week for the Sharks. We hope to see everyone next week for our final week of camp.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nSarah, Steve, and Chris Manno\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style="color: #3366ff;"><strong>Camp Show</strong></span>\r\n\r\nSharks:\r\n\r\n<span style="color: #000000;">This week was our final week at Future Stars. We are sad that we are leaving, but we made sure we had a great week and we couldn''t wait for the camp show at the end of the week!! Throughout the week we focused on getting ready for the camp show. While learning the dances and moves <strong>Luca</strong> and <strong>Brady A.</strong> were great leaders whipping everybody into shape. While <strong>Nolan H.</strong> was the quickest to learn our individual dance. Not only did we prepare for the camp show, but being in the all sports we played a bunch of sports. At the beginning of the week we played world cup. During this <strong>Connor P.</strong> held great defense not allowing opponents to get near the net, yet <strong>Brady L.</strong> was able to sneak past him once for a goal. Later in the day we held a 3 on 3 basketball tournament where <strong>Hunter</strong>, <strong>Sage</strong>, and <strong>Major</strong> were the champions! While <strong>Connor C.</strong> scored the winning basket for his team during the semi final. Throughout the week we played little games of wall ball here and there and <strong>Parker</strong> showed off his quick hands and strong throwing arm. We also played a game of knock out. <strong>Dylan</strong> was the champion knocking out all of the players including the counselors! Later in the week we played ultimate football and <strong>John H.</strong>, <strong>Matt E.</strong>, and the <strong>Gallagher brothers</strong> all scored touchdowns for their respective teams. After football we played pillow polo baseball with the Big Dogs and <strong>Chris</strong>, and <strong>Tyler</strong> had clutch hits for their teams. Lastly, we also played run the bases and <strong>Tommy</strong> won by using his quick feet to avoid being tagged. Throughout the week <strong>Roman</strong> showed amazing and outstanding hustling during all of the sports. Finally, we would like to congratulate our top banana/camper of the week, <strong>Luca</strong>. He did a phenomenal job participating in all of the activities and was a pleasure to have in our group!! He made sure everybody was included and always had a smile on his face.</span>\r\n\r\nYour Counselors,\r\n\r\nNolan, Joe, Matt Y., and Matt A.', 'All Sports', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'open', '', '40-revision-v1', '', '', '2014-08-15 15:58:02', '2014-08-15 15:58:02', '', 40, 'http://futurestarscamps.com/delval/?p=1571', 0, 'revision', '', 0);
