<h3><span style="color: #ff9900;">Week 4 7/8/13 </span></h3>
This week was Go Green week at Future Stars Camp! The hawks participated in many green-themed activities. In art, Grace and Kylie made awesome finger-paint globes that resembled the Earth very well! On Wednesday, the balloon man, John Cassidy, came and performed a magical show. Zoe and Joy both volunteered in the show and received special balloon animals for their participation. This week Ryan and Sean both played many games well in sport such as soccer, sharks and minnows, and relay races. During pool the hawks continued to work on their swimming skills. Eric and Olivia both showed great participation and improvement throughout the week. In Hollywood, Georgia taught the hawks how to swing dance. Nicole and Cayla enjoyed swing dancing and picked up the steps very easily. Green week will conclude with a scavenger hunt on Friday planned by the Gators! We look forward to seeing everyone back again for Carnival week!

This week of camp was an exciting one here at Future Stars! Although the girls could not bring the Spirit Stick back to the Gopher/Eagles, they excelled in every other area of camp and truly showed their perseverance. A reoccurring game that continues to challenge the girls is the lava/stones game.  This "brain teaser" forces the group to work together to get across the lava to the other side without falling off the stones.  While some of the girls struggled, Emily, Kelly and Gianna held them together, being leaders and helping the others across the stones.  We hope this game strengthens friendships and makes new ones. In sport, Anya and Elena demonstrated their perseverance by learning how to shoot a basketball.  The pair used the whole period to learn and attempt to shoot baskets, and they were successful!  In soccer, Ashley, Emma, and MiKayla continue to utilize their skills and score goals!  All of the girls are impressive on the soccer field.  In Vinu's first week of camp here at Future Stars, she amazed the group in Charades and Jenga.  This week we learned a lot in Science about the Earth.  Hannah was extremely interested in some of the experiments Josh incorporated this week.  We all enjoyed the Diet Coke and Mentos explosion...it was awesome!  Brinda was the prime example this week of patience; she asked a few times during the week if we could play Knockout but we always opted to play something else.  So when we finally did play, it was sweet to see Brinda win. Kate got her fingers messy this week in Art when she finger painted her rendition of the Earth.  All week long Rebecca dominated the pool, swimming laps like an Olympian; she picked up the strokes quickly and was the top of the class.  All the girls continue to impress us with all of their different talents and we are so happy you chose Future Stars Camps! We hope to see all of our new and old campers back next week!

Your Counselors,

Mary, Cayla, Liz and Corey
