What a crazy few weeks it's been! That weather sure took everyone by surprise, including the campers; but as usual, we didn't let anything get in the way of having a total blast at camp! These past two weeks we've been talking about Outer Space. We've been learning some fun and awesome facts about planets and stars, and we've been soaking up all the sunny summer weather. And we've gone on field trips. Lots and lots of field trips!! Have a look:
Flying a rocket kite at Congdon Park:
Exploring rocks and minerals at Tischer Creek:
One day we hiked up to the Reservoire and played for hours in this big old tree. It's amazing what a tree can do for the imagination!!:
Like all of our Space Camps here at Congdon Creek, we shot off a lot of homemade rockets! I think the campers could have sat and watched rockets blast off all day!:
Joie was a seriously cute rocket launching spectator!:
We got a chance to explore Lief Erickson Park and Duluth's beautiful rose gardens!:
We escaped the heat one day by playing in Chester Creek:
The kids had a blast catching crawfish!
And also to cool off we stayed close to camp base and played in the pools:
One day we hiked the air-conditioned skywalk down to the library for Kalidescope. No one finds downtown as interesting as a group of children!!:
We stopped in Amsoil where we really were able to cool down!!:
And we logged many hours at one of our favorite parks, Playfront!:
Sincerely,
CCP
