Father’s Day Weekend
June 21, 2009 Camp Activities Comments Off
We had a grrrrr-eat time, Father’s Day Weekend! I made lots of new camping friends and hung out with a few old ones too. I got lots of hugs and some high fives

But my very favorite hello was when I got patted on the nooooooose

Awwwwww!
Bryant kept us hopping this weekend! Parachute play, candy bar bingo, water balloons, scavenger hunt, and a movie.
I think the Dad’s had lots of fun too . . . my camping buddies made them crowns at Arts and Crafts

There was a Father/Son horseshoe tournament too! Here are our first place winners

and our second place father/son team

I heard there were some really great games played . . . well done!
Some of the Dad’s played ping pong too

On Saturday night we had an awesome chicken barbeque . . . and the Dad’s got to eat for free! I could smell that chicken cooking all afternoon. My tummy started rumbling

Lots of campers showed up for their half chicken, potato and salad . . .
about 70 I think

But I wasn’t one of them.
Tami said Moose don’t eat chicken. They eat twigs and leaves and water lilies.
Water lilies? Water LILIES?
“Can I have just a bite of your half?” I begged. “A liiiiii-ttle, teeny tiny one?”
Tami shook her head no.
“The wing? Just the wing, please?”
“No chicken for you.” Tami said. She pointed to a maple tree, gently pushed me toward it and told me to try some twigs. “They’re good for you.”
Twigs? Really? Would you settle for brussell sprouts when everybody else was eating ice cream?
Well, don’t tell her, but Bryant slipped me a drum stick when she wasn’t looking.
It was DE-licious!
