Wow, what an incredible two weeks of camp! The end of a session is truly a bittersweet experience. It always goes by much faster than anyone could have anticipated and suddenly, one is left wondering how they can keep in touch with their new friends and trying to savor every last detail of their fond memories. Last night was a culminating night in adventure camp. Both MAC and Teen Adventures participated in affirmation circles. Where every member of camp is asked to mention one of their fellow campers or counselors and how they were positively impacted by them. As a director, I expect some affirmations but the really special ones are those that I am surprised to hear. Listening to campers recount how they have made a difference in each other’s lives will never get old or mundane. Here’s to another great session!

This year, MAC has added a new competition that the whole camp is abuzz about. Marathon 2010! Our wonderful camp directors devised an obstacle course/rely/eating competition/sport competition that almost covers the entire campus with activities. Every camper is asked to man a station for their team and tackle that challenge ferociously or else their team might fall behind! That is exactly what this boy did at the jello eating station. What an awesome new addition to adventure camp!

Yesterday TAC finally got to have their chance at Hershey Park. There wasn’t a single non-rider in the group, which needless to say, made it a very exciting day. Click HERE to watch a video of Gespard riding a roller coaster!

It is customary for every session of Adventure Camp in both MAC and Teen Adventures to have a theme night. This session of MAC the theme night was Monsters Inc. The food was scary good and the activities on Ford Patio were spine chillingly fun! Teen Adventures had their own awesome theme night. Ford Patio was transformed into a beautiful Luau scene complete with Chicken and Pineapple kebobs, limbo and hula hooping. The evening culminated in a wacky Hawaiian tourist relay race. Theme nights are a big part of what makes Adventure Camp special at Mercersburg, but as always, you never know when they’re coming!
