Feeling hot, hot, hot!




Evening all! Today has been a beautiful, sunny hot day...high 80s and more to come this weekend :) That's what we like to hear. After being sure to get hydrated and stay hydrated at lunch and via our delicious fresh water, the ladies had a super active day including river float, canoeing and pool to enjoy the weather via awesome water activities. To chill out after the heat and water, there were fort building and improv lessons...only at Camp Kupugani, right? Well, the campfire has wound down, having sung some cool songs like the 'empathy song' and 'fighting is not the solution', we know another magnificent day of camp has ended. Night all.

Good morning good morning the little bird said...

Hellllllooo! Well, what a great night's sleep.....I hope the campers enjoyed theirs as much as I did :) I'm sure many of them did on super comfy new 5-inch mattresses! And now our awesome facilities manager Brian has put the cool nets up over our new mud volleyball and new sand volleyball courts, and also prepared some great building ideas for camp building projects like super cool Kupugani benches, and also some sweet bat boxes. We'll try to add some pics of the ladies building away when they do those activities....."I said a bench build a bench, I said a bench build a bench, I said a won't you build a bat box for mosquitoes chick a boom :) Ahhhh camp songs are the best. xoxoxo

Another great day in the books!

Hola! Bonjour! Ciao! Hallo! Just saying hello in a few of the different languages we have had here at Kupugani :) Well today has been awesome-- amazing weather and the camp family has been shining just as hot as the sun!! A productive morning learning about conflict resolution using "I statements" went super well--skills they can bring home for when they get frustrated because they are not at camp any more ;) Shrinky dinks at arts and crafts, mud volleyball gathered more followers, and then the kitchen staff made an awesome dinner of Salisbury steak with 'grrrrrrrrrrl power' cake which was absolutely incredible mmmm mmmm mmmm. Well, it's bed time for not just the campers but me as well, night folks speak to you all tomorrow. Hey Ho, Kupugani's got soul! G'night! xxx

Hey...does anyone know where I can rock climb, crate stack, go on a challenge hike, play mud volleyball and then chill at the pool? I do! Camp Kupugani...these days just get better and better, no wonder we all love camp and its awesomeness. And, after our fantastic farm fresh hamburgers at lunch and amazing spaghetti dinner, we all continued our personal development journey with a great "My People Are" evening activity, followed by our talented camp guitarist and a moving campfire. Time for bed! J Catch you all tomorrow xxx
