I came across two excellent YouTube videos by Dr. Chris Thurber about preparing for summer camp.  Follow the links below if you are interested:

Enjoy!

There is nothing like a camp theme day to add excitement, bring people together - and be a little silly!  To give campers a chance to pack a costume we have put together a plan for our summer theme days in advance:

Session #1: World Cup - dress as a soccer player, a country from around the world...

Session #2: Safari Adventure - dress as an explorer or any safari animal (lion, giraffe, elephant, zebra...)

Session #3: Blast from the Past - choose a decade and make your costume match - there is lots of history to choose from!

Session #4: Mythical Creatures - this is a chance to be as creative as you like or explore mythical creatures from cultures around the world.

I hope this is helpful and you can pack something fun to dress up in!  I can't wait to get this summer started!
