Y Save the World and the Yadkin Pool!

As another week of Summer Camp came to a close, we learned about our enviornment during Y Save the World week, which focused on environmental education! 

Campers crafted recycled flowers with seeds inside to plant at home. 

Most fun of all, campers got their hands dirty smushing up newspapers, water, and flower seeds!







Huddle groups take time everyday out of their activities and spend time doing a devotion.  During this time, campers learn about the YMCA character traits, talk about sportsmanship, and even learn how to get along and work together. 

Camp this year is complete with a "Chapel," a special space set aside just for devotion time.

Clinic for the week focused on painting.  Campers got to use their imaginations as they created fish out of paper plates and butterflies out of coffee filters!




 

We spent time playing basketball during our P.E. hour while dressed up in our craziest green outfits on Wacky Wednesday!






  
The coolest part of the very hot week was relaxing in the Splash Pad and Pool at the Yadkin YMCA!  Campers had a blast splashing around!  We can't wait to go back during Week 9 of Camp!

 

Next week we look forward to "Where in the World is..." week when we will learn about other cultures, make cool crafts, and eat food from another culture!  Campers will head to Dan Nicholas Park on their field trip!
