Dear Parents,
<p dir="ltr">We had another fabulous week of camp here in the Gopher/Eagles! While the temperature cooled down, the competition heated up for Blue and Gold week. The group was divided up into Blue and Gold and competed for points all week through their daily activities, culminating with a day of Blue and Gold events on Friday. On Cheer Day, the Gopher/Eagles, who already won two weeks this summer, did not disappoint. With an amazing cheer created by Gianna, Anna, and Isabella set to the tune of Taylor Swift’s song “22,” the Gopher/Eagles sang with much enthusiasm and wowed the judges. The whole group contributed with ideas regarding formation, lyrics, and dance moves. They may not have won, but they were the unofficial winners and Maryann came up afterwards boasting how much she loved it. The Gopher/Eagles have absolutely dominated cheer day this summer, putting forth an incredible cheer week after week. In the pool, the group competed for points for their teams through Steal the Bacon. MiKayla excelled in swimming, coming up with all the balls and rings thrown in. Olivia and Caroline both demonstrated great hustle and defensive skills, flustering their opponents. Marc shined in art, making creative and intricate pieces, especially during Free Draw. In Hollywood, Michael showed off his vast knowledge as he knew all the answers during trivia. Brinda rocked in Camper/Counselor knockout, getting both counselors and campers out, making it to the finals. Paige enjoyed the Camper/Counselor knockout game, cheering on her counselor Ben as well as her fellow Gopher/Eagles that participated. This week we had a special treat as the campers got to go on a moonbounce two different days. Ryan, Megan, and Lauren had a blast on the moonbounce, having fun playing games like tag and four corners. Julia enjoyed competing against her brother during Blue and Gold week, especially during scooter relays. The campers had a lot of fun this week and despite the competitive nature of the Blue and Gold rivalry, they demonstrated great sportsmanship at all times. We look forward to seeing you all next week!</p>
