the Poland Spring Campground Justice League!

Camp Activities No Comments

Wow!  I’ve never seen soooooo many super heroes here at Poland Spring Campground!

There were Supermans, Spidermans, Wonder Womans, Power Rangers, Super Girls, Iron Mans and many, many more!

Every where you turned, there were Super Heroes galore!!

and they all came together (after making masks and capes at Arts and Crafts) for Super Hero Try Outs!

They leaped tall buildings in a single bound

showed off their fancy footwork

and their ability to squeeze in and out of tight spots

Then, the evil villains came out of their lair

and our Justice League banded together

to show those evil-doers what we were made of!

Once again, Poland Spring Campground was safe for campers everywhere!

Whew!  I don’t know about Tami.  But I was worried there for a minute.

We had paddle boat building,  bocci, horseshoes, story time, lessons on how to tie up a villain

jewelry making, a scavenger hunt, movies, super hero training and hayrides too!

Feeling sad you couldn’t make it this time?  Well, we still have lots of Theme Weekends left you know.  Fiesta Weekend, 2 Halloweens, Adventurer Weekend and Medieval too!   Take your pick and give us a call!  We’d love to see you!

Miiiiii-ghty Moose!  Defender of  little campers, protector of woodland creatures,  lover of Debbie’s Wednesday ice cream!

We started the weekend by finding stolen treasure, making get away boats then racing them in the rain,  playing ping pong  and bingo too.

When Saturday dawned bright and sunny, everyone bowed down to Storm for arranging it !

The first important task on our long list of things-to-do, was to design capes and masks to hide our secret identities

Then we went right into the Tryouts!   My little camping buddies were tested by Daredevil Debbie and Spiderman

to see if they could run faster than a speeding bullet

Could they jump through hoops to capture an enemy?

Everyone did such an awesome job!  They passed every test we threw at them!

Then, from out of nowhere, we were surrounded by the Poland Spring Campground Tie-Die Villians!

So my Super Hero campers got together and chased them away . . .

With our handy, dandy, waterballoon slingshot!

They got scared, I tell you.  Scared!!

Then they shot balloons at us, and let us catch them.

Later that day we practiced tying up villians . . .

On Saturday night, Almodarr and Angelique: The Magic of the Steelgraves, magically reappeared this year to amaze and astound us!   Tami could hear their laughing and clapping all the way up at the office!

I wish I could’ve gone too, but Tami told me I had to go to bed early, ’cause I had to be at story time Sunday  morning. Early.  Really early!  9am!

My friend Sammie .. . well, she and I loooooove story time.  But we think it’s kind of early in the morning for a Sunday.  So, I tried to tell Bryant it was toooooo early.

But Bryant said it’s never too early for a story and moose feed . . .

So I tried to tell Ben.  But he said, that if he and Amanda had to get up at 7am to deliver the Sunday paper to all 132 campsites, I can get up to go to story time.

So I complained to Dave.  He said that he’d gladly get up at 9am to listen to stories over his morning coffee  . . . buuuut he has to do security rounds till at least 2am the night before.

I’m not even gonna ask Tami, ’cause I KNOW what she thinks about storytime.  I guess it has to stay at 9am Sammie!

Now we get ready for Halloween!

A whoooooole week of it!

Super Hero Weekend!

Camp Activities 2 Comments

Mighty Moose here!

What a super fantastic weekend! Debbie and Bryant made Get Away Hydro Boats, hero vehicles with coffee clay, capes, masks and helmets too! We found the missing store treasure, and tested hero water skills at the lake.

Heros were found in every corner of the campground! Here’s Bumble Bee from the Transformers

Super B!

and Super Princess

Hero’s were tested to see if they could tie up their villians super tight

They were asked to run faster than a speeding bullet

jump higher than the tallest building

and perform daring feats

Some showed off moves that had even Cat Woman jealous!

When Flash’s arch enemies, The Rogues, appeared

our super heros attacked back with water balloons and won! Poland Spring Campground was safe for all campers once again.

We celebrated with a victory hayride!

Here’s the Poland Spring Campground Justice League

On Saturday night Paul from Mad Science performed his Spin, Pop, Boom show!

As our camper families checked out today, they all told us what a great time they had this weekend!

A big shout out to Heart Girl, Super Brody, Super Sleuths, and all the Super Hero’s who showed off their moves to me, The Flash, Wonder Woman and Cat Woman!

We all had an amazing time!

Come back and see us real soon . . .
