This morning we started the day off right with delicious Belgian waffles, sausage, and fresh fruit. After breakfast, we headed to Chapel where we sang some of our favorite songs and heard from Will, who shared a great message about serving others.

Several exciting trips headed out today, including the much-anticipated Sunnyside Trip—a special adventure reserved for our oldest campers.

In our morning activities, DIY campers made adorable beaded frog keychains, while kayaking had a blast playing water polo out on the lake.

For lunch, it was Greek Day in the Tucker Inn! We enjoyed chicken gyros with all the fixings — a definite favorite.

The afternoon brought even more fun. Backpacking roasted s’mores over the campfire and went on a moss scavenger hunt around camp. Canoeing campers raced across the water in exciting relay races.

Dinner was yummy roast beef, mashed potatoes, green beans, and cookies for dessert.

Tonight’s evening activity is Cabin Night! The Tweedles are gathering for s’mores and a Tweedles dance party, The Robin is going on a camp-wide scavenger hunt, and Jiggity Jog is sliding into the night with a slip ’n slide.

Another wonderful day here at Camp Merri-Mac, full of laughter, adventure, and sweet moments with friends!
