Good Morning Red Arrow Friends & Family,
Once again, you can follow the action and excitement at RAC on our blog. We will be keeping it up to date over the course of the summer with pictures and updates on trips, special events, activities and much more around camp.
We have created our 2009 Flickr page, where you will be available to view lots of pictures as time goes on.
It was an exciting, yet bittersweet, day around Red Arrow as preparations and packing took place. The cabins worked together to make a smooth transition for all the packers. The evenings events were awesome and all were treated to a regal banquet. Leila, Carol and the Cookies prepared, and served, a delicious meal with waiters… and all the fanfare. Entertainment was provided by Dave Evans and all had a great time singing and dancing around the room. After dinner all moved into the Rec Hall for a slide presentation by the Counselors and then we all marched (by candlelight) down to talk to Little Joe. After our final song of the evening, Big Campfire, we all said our goodbyes so we could get a good nights sleep for an early bell.
The Actors of Red Arrow took the stage over the weekend, and on Monday, for two stellar performances. So much hard work and commitment were shown by all the campers… and their thespian leaders. The acting was great and the music was superb ! Two weeks of non-stop work showed how in a short span of time… great things can be done.
A sampling of pictures from a Jimmy Tait sailing expedition. Cesar Ramos, Javier Vazquez, Ian Dethloff and Keegan Jacobus had a great time and are slowly becoming master sailors.
Check out the awesome pics of the Manor Men on their recent cabin trip !
What an awesome cabin night for Cabin C on Wednesday. Their awesome counselors took them on a lake excursion as the rode the waves.
The weather was wonderful for the 2009 Olympic Games at Red Arrow. The events went great and all the campers and staff had a great time in their competitions.
The Honors campers, who are experienced riders and have earned a ‘best tripper’ for this year, had an awesome time on their recent overnight pack trip. There were 7 campers and 3 staff members who went on the expedition. In addition to riding they feasted on Elk for dinner in the evening ( compliments of Fred ! )
Chapel this week was led by Fred, and some additional wranglers. Fred spoke of making the most of your time when you are at camp… and also with your life.
