What's Happening at Hillcrest: 10/11 Girls

Each day this summer, we'll be spotlighting a different group or activity at camp with a post from one of our staff members. Today's post is from Arielle S. - Group Leader of the 10/11 Girls.

The first week of camp has been so much fun for the 10/11 girls! On Monday, we spent some time getting to know each other in our home base by doing ice breakers and talking about or favorite songs. We went on our trip to the batting cages and all had a blast playing mini golf and winning prizes in the arcade. On Tuesday, we spent time at camp making foam fingers in arts and crafts, learning about the days of creation in Jewish Culture, and playing games in drama. Then, we went to gymnastics where we did relay races and learned some cool gymnastics tricks. We also took our swim test and got put in different groups so we can all learn how to swim.  

On Wednesday, we went to the bbq at the park. Although it was hot out, we all had a great time playing on the playground with our new friends. When we got back to camp, we hung out together in our home base and then won canteenbucks in bingo. We went on the second trip of the week on Thursday when we went to laser bounce. There, we played fun games of laser tag and won points in the arcade. When we came back, we went to the wii room and then had our first double swim of the summer! The first week of camp has been so much fun so far and everyone has been making so many new friends. We can’t wait for more swimming, playing games, and having fun this summer!
