Kira had her first week of Girl Scout Camp the last week of June. It was a photography week in which they explored elements of photography and what you can do with the pictures once you have taken them. They created a photo gallery and scrapbooks to bring home. On the last day of camp parents are invited out for a performance of skits by all the age groups and viewing the photogallery. The kids spent all week outside, rain or shine, at their campsite. Kira keeps telling me other things that they did; things that she had forgotten to tell me about because other things were more exciting. She met new friends, learned new songs and games, learned to jump rope, shoot a bow and arrow, practice taking pictures, cook out over a fire and make her own scrapbook. These are just a few of the things that Kira did during her week at Girl Scout camp. She came home every day with dirt everywhere and a smile on her face. Overall, I'd say she liked it. Now we are looking at the possibility of sending her to the last week of camp as well (theme of that week is treasure hunting). Kira equates that to her Geocaching eperiences.
