Session 2: We're here!


Seen in the photo here, campers exited DaBoata yesterday to almost 100 cheering staff. Things are busy here at camp -- Teen Leadership is dominating camp right now, with 30 interns and 13 Counselors-In-Training. Also of interest are Archery Camp in Village, and our first sessions of Horse Camp and Outback/Tripping for the summer. Things are great here at camp -- the days are heating up, but we're trying to stay cool!

Session 1: Swim Checks and Wail Lunch


Check out this great photo of campers and staff dressed for the traditional Wail Lunch this afternoon. On the last full day of each session, one unit hosts a themed luncheon that's always a rousing good time -- complete with cheers, songs, and dancing. Today's Wail Lunch was "Ninja vs. Pirates" themed ... obviously these campers took a little leeway with the theme! A good time was had by all.


The Puget Sound is chilly this time of year, but campers braved the freezing waters for swim checks. Everyone who passed gets an "I survived swim checks!" patch and waterfront privileges. Brrrr!

Session 1: days one and two

Great news from Camp Sealth! We're two days into our first session and loving every minute of it.

There are almost 100 children here, in first through eighth grades. So far, kids have enjoyed games in the Orchard, shooting arrows at archery, and various crafts including tie-dye and candle-making.

Here is a picture of some intrepid campers enjoying the First Night Fun skit on -- you guessed it! -- the first night. Check back throughout the session for more great photos and stories of our adventures!
