We headed out on a drizzly Friday afternoon, packing as many girls as I could in my car. Finally, we got to camp, got settled in, and headed for the evening program in the lodge. Evening program = snacks and a sing-a-long.
Saturday morning brought more drizzle, but we were prepared. Cause you can't go camping in the PNW without drizzle. Especially in the spring! We spent our morning in the lodge making different crafts. Once we were done, we headed outside for some games and more songs until lunch. To our surprise, the sun was peeking out. By the way, Girl Scout camp is all about games and songs. I even got to dust off my Girl Scout song skills a bit ;)
After lunch we headed to one of the most anticipated events of the encamporee - the dragon boats! These boats are so cool. The girls were not able to take them out on the water (it was too windy), but they did practice getting in and out as well as good rowing form. And best of all, all that wind was pushing the clouds back and we had full sun while out on the dock.
The rest of the day we spent at other stations -- we learned to make a box oven, did a service project, and practiced our whittling. After supper, we headed back to our cabin and the girls had fun telling ghost stories.
Sunday morning brought more sun and games. All too soon, it was time to head back home. The girls sang and giggled all the way home. But the best part was, the girls were asking when we could go camping again.
