We're off on our international journey! There are 32 campers and 6 teachers (supported by one or two assistants for each teacher), 7 counselors (for the afternoon activities), 2 chefs, Melissa (our director), and C.C. (Time Keeper and Expert Reading Camp Volunteer).
The first floor of Mission House has been transformed into a global wonderland.
The south end of the Chapel is decorated with artwork, clothing, and books from Asia. The north end has books, costumes, and money from France, Italy, Ireland and other European nations.
The Executive Council Room is decorated to represent Africa on the south side, South America in the middle, and North and Central America on the north side.
The Resource Room feels like the Outback, with a kangaroo, an Australian flag and map, a giant toucan, and a GIANT panoramic photo (4 feet high by 24 feet long!) of the Great Barrier Reef that must seem really awesome when you're 4 feet tall! There are also real sponges and sea shells to touch and a beautifully decorated boomerang. Nobody has tried to throw it....... yet.
The Learning Centers are running like clockwork (with help from C.C.) and the kids are very excited to go swimming at Transylvania University and exploring and learning at the London Ferrell Garden with Seedleaf.
