Today was really awesome. The Young Naturalists and Explorers spent lots of time together. First, we all had a singalong this morning, led by Hannah with her ukelele. We sang really great songs like "She'll Be Coming Around the Mountain When She Comes", "Mr. Rabbit" by Pete Seeger, "Little Cabin in the Woods", The Rock Cycle Song, Shoo Fly Don't Bother Me, and "Peel Bananas" led by Patrick. Thanks to all who shared these great songs!
Later in the morning, Explorers and Young Naturalists joined forces again to do a Geological Quest on the Larch Hill trails. The Explorers designed the quest for the Young Naturalists on Friday, and today they helped the younger ones find clues on the trail and answer questions about rocks and minerals. Everyone did great! Our reward for finishing the quest was popsicles, but they're not all the way frozen yet - darn! Hopefully they will be frozen by tomorrow.
And then my favorite thing of all - parachute games! We all got together and played with the Hitchcock Center's huge parachutes. We played really fun games like Cat and Mouse, Lifeguard and Fruit Salad. It so fun to play with the whole camp together!

| The cats had to count to "10 meow" to give the mice a head start. |

| A mouse's point of view! |
 |
| Everybody wants to be a mouse! |
 |
| "Lifeguard!!!!" |
 |
| The lifeguard has to scramble to save anyone who is getting "eaten" by a shark. |

| All the campers are in this "mushroom"! |
