Summer Camp Ardèche, France
First day excitement
Quote of the day: "The best way to predict the future is to create it"
And so the magic has begun! The campers have all arrived safely and although slightly tired, have been having lots of fun making their new friends.
They started arriving today from lunchtime onwards and once they got checked in by our magic-maker Dave and had a quick chat with our health care facilitator Panda they were set to meet their new tent-mates. After a quick introduction with lots of excited babbling it was time to get them down to the river for a refreshing swim to cool down from the intense heat. Others chose to enter some healthy competition and play some tether ball and soccer.
Once a big group of the campers had arrived we had a fun and energetic ice-breaker session where the campers got to experience some camp-favourite games like River/bank and a personal favourite - Buggy up.
When the remainder of the campers arrived we sat down for a good hearty dinner cooked by our wonderful Chef Doug. The camp counsellors got the chance to introduce themselves along with a quick introduction to how everything works here in the Ardeche.
After all the excitement of the day and with new friends to keep everyone company the happy campers are all ready to a great night's sleep. We are all excited for the rest of what promises to be a fantastic 2 weeks!
In the words of our Director Dave: Stay safe, be awesome, and let the good times roll!
