As session 3 comes to a close, our campers are ending it with a bang! The excitement is in the air as they come together to celebrate Y Guy's birthday, a beloved member of our camp community. With his infectious energy and positive spirit, Y Guy truly makes the Y a fun place to be. In addition to the birthday festivities, our campers have been busy participating in the final activities for their Olympic games. From the colorful and exhilarating color run to creating beautiful arts and crafts, they have been showcasing their creativity and teamwork. Not to mention, they have been honing their swim skills, learning new techniques and gaining confidence in the water. And let's not forget about our pre-teens and teens, who had the opportunity to explore off-campus activities for some added fun and adventure. It's been a session filled with laughter, friendship, and unforgettable memories. Here's to a successful end to session 3 and looking forward to the adventures that await in the next session!
