Medieval Weekend
August 26, 2009 5:57 pm Camp ActivitiesMaxx here!
There was so much for my little campers to do over Medieval Weekend! Charging and jousting
ferrier fetching (horseshoes), bocci,volleyball, boat races,
princess and Robin Hood hat making
shield making, cannon ball target practice, a penny hunt, viking ships in arts and crafts, swordplay
a scavenger hunt, porridge eating
and hayrides
Halfway through Saturday, Bryant the Red Knight and his friend Dan the Blue Knight, had a liiiiii=ttle argument. You see, Bryant thought Cookie Dough ice cream was the best Ben and Jerry’s flavor ever made. And Dan thought Cherry Garcia was tastier. There was only one way to solve the argument . . .
they dueled! The crowd cheered them on . . . rooting for their favorite flavor. Um, I mean, their favorite knight.
Cherry Garcia won the day, but everyone came together in the end.
It was awesome to see so many ladies-in-waiting and knights
Princesses
Robin Hoods and Maid Marian’s
I really, really think it makes the recreation that much more fun when my camping buddies dress up!
On Saturday night Bryant hosted Trash Bag theater. Three teams came up with the most excellent plays ever!
There was Every Man in a Dress across the Time Space Continuum
and The Mystery of the Golden Bone
the last was simply titled, Camping.
I had so much fun watching them do their excellent acting, that I got a little carried away and kind of . . .
sort of . . .
conquered Bryant.
Tami shook her head at me. “Maaaaaaxx! We can’t do Adventurer Weekend without Bryant. Help him up!”
Sheesh.
