And now, for the THRILLING Conclusion of Spy Week 2016:
 |
Oh no. |
 |
Even more areas of Camp have been contaminated... |
 |
Infected... |
 |
And quarantined! |
 |
Even our prized possession, The Dining Hall, is off-limits! |
 |
We were forced to meet on the corner of the flagstones... |
 |
Until even THAT area became contaminated with anti-Camp-Spirit! |
 |
Oh no! That's all of Camp Central! |
 |
Thusly, we had to flee down to our last refuge, the shade at the edge of the bowl... |
 |
Where our Double Agent Counselors were finally revealed! |
 |
No! Not you three! We trusted you! |
 |
But our Double Agent Counselors revealed there might be Double Agents among our campers as well! (*Gasp!*) |
 |
That left only one last ditch activity to pull out to try to save the infected locations on Camp, and our Camp week itself! |
 |
It was time for Protocol 1-9-5-1. |
 |
The Camp Spirit Test. |
 |
A series of tests... |
 |
Challenges... |
 |
Tasks... |
 |
And puzzles... |
 |
To fuel our Camp spirit... |
 |
And prove our love for 4-H Camp! |
 |
Yup. It's a handful. |
 |
What's the final step of this station in the Spirit Test? |
 |
If you've been paying attention to this blog... |
 |
You knew what was about to happen next. |
 |
Each successful challenge was checked off on each camper's handy-dandy-Spirit-Card. |
 |
Friendship Bracelets were made... |
 |
To help win back our quarantined locations! |
 |
I.D. Thumbprints were placed... |
 |
Underneath picnic tables with care. |
 |
Speed was tested... |
 |
In a wet way... |
 |
On a hot day. |
 |
Art appeared on the walls of the White House Bathroom! |
 |
Convenient, easy to remove wall art. |
 |
Who could steal a flag from these two? |
 |
Pretty much everyone. |
 |
Beneath the bridge... |
 |
There was target practice. |
 |
And across the bridge... |
 |
There were waterfront challenges! |
 |
Challenges! That sound serious. (Even if this guy was dressed as a taco.) |
 |
Don't worry. They were fun challenges. |
 |
Like down-the-slide... |
 |
Find-the-splash-ball... |
 |
Save-the-flamingos-outside-the-swim-lines-challenges! |
 |
And, |
 |
In the end... |
 |
We answered... |
 |
The age-old... |
 |
Question... |
 |
Of... |
 |
Who's... |
 |
Got... |
 |
Camp Spirit!? |
 |
Turns out. |
 |
It was all of us. |
 |
Yup. |
 |
We all... |
 |
Had more than enough Camp Spirit... |
 |
To pass the test with flying Camp colors. |
 |
(Counselors too.) |
 |
And it even seemed we got enough Friendship Bracelets to save our Off-Limits locations! |
 |
But we needed to test the areas and discover if they were indeed safe! |
 |
So we raised up... |
 |
Our completed Spirit cards... |
 |
And sent out our counselors... |
 |
To test our beloved locations! |
 |
Founder's Rock is hospitable again! |
 |
The three trees are lovely!
|
 |
And the mood at the Dining Hall is terrific!
|
 |
We can even get firewood from the Wood Shed again! |
 |
Tear down those barriers! |
 |
Take off the tape! |
 |
Remove the signs! |
 |
Camp is safe, happy, and positive once more! |
 |
We can all finally sit and enjoy the view from Lakeside again as we prepare for the end of the week. |
 |
Plus, having some sweet Camp Spirit Card souvenirs... |
 |
...doesn't hurt either. |
