It’s unfortunate that a number of them have been cancelled or postponed because of the global pandemic. But we still get to engage in the spirit of these events by having fun together!
day 12 afternoon session
This week, we talked a lot about festivals and how there are a lot of activities that you could do and could go watch if in-person festivals were still a thing at the moment. Well, we are bringing you a virtual festival called The Palooza! Join us in celebrating all many wonderful festivals all at once in this session.
Counselors Fried Bryce, Rad Dog, and Caveman come back with more friends to do different challenges. Fried Bryce and Caveman do one more eating competition, but at what cost.
week 3: community cares
In Week 3, campers learn that sharing is caring, and food is the best thing to share with people. We’ll be showing food as not only something that’s super yummy but also something that can bring people together. Campers will not be making any dishes. But we hope to inspire campers to think more about the significance behind food.
