Camp Hero: Day 3

Today was the third day of Camp Hero, and if it was hot, we didn't notice today because it was... (drumroll) slip 'n slide day!

Starting with a short warm up, we then broke up into our color teams and rotated through 5 different stations, including the slip 'n slide. A couple campers were hesitant at first, but eventually everyone went through at least once (most much more!), and the counselors even got in on the fun. The other stations were mainly workouts, including keeping a medicine ball from dropping, lunges, sandbag slams, and more, but there was also a station where each camper had to find at least 5 things they had in common with their other teammates.

After lunch, Baker Harrell from ACTIVE Life, a local nonprofit focused on health, nutrition and exercise, came by to help campers make some goals for ways they can inspire their entire family to live a healthier life.

Then we did some free journaling, both writing and drawing, followed by an exercise talking about how you feel in different situations, why, and how you can be comfortable with yourself in different places. After that, we played a game called "Who Am I?" where campers had to guess "who" they were (the name on the post-it on their backs) by asking a limited number of "yes" or "no" questions.
