Our final full day at camp! Where has the week gone? Time sure does fly by when you’re having fun!!
Students woke up this morning and headed to breakfast to enjoy some pancakes and cereal!
After breakfast, we headed down to our cabins to do another teacher check in. Students shared out all the fun and memorable events throughout the week and completed the final pages of their workbook. Everyone agreed we missed home but also to get the most of our last day at camp. Before sending them to gear up, all students from Wolf Canyon gathered for a class picture. See below!
Soon after, students grabbed their water bottles and hiking gear for their final long hike of the week. Students spent the next three hours of the day going on a hike to find animals, traces of animals, looking at various trees, and trying to spot a variety of birds native to San Diego. Students took notes and completed assignments in their workbooks reflecting on the morning.
After the long hike, stomachs were definitely growling. Our hiking groups came back to the dining hall for lunch. Today’s lunch consisted of a kid favorite – tostadas! Yummy!
After lunch, students went to their afternoon activity of arts and craft. Students were allowed to choose to sand, buff, and polish a real piece of manzanita wood or a beautiful piece of quartz rock. Once finished, students will get to take their craft home and keep forever. Just ask Mr. Riggs – he still has his when he went to sixth grade camp as a student!
After getting back to camp, students were given a recess break before their final camp shower!
After showering, it was our final dinner. Tonight, students were served a ‘night picnic’! We had hot dogs, chips, watermelon, and corn on the cob! So yummy and fun!
Our final night activity was an all-camp talent show! Students from all schools with a unique talent have been practicing all week for tonight’s grand finale. The talent show had a variety of acts from musical, singing, magic, and hilarious skits. What a great way to end our week.
After the show, students headed back to their cabins for final cabin activities to reflect on the week and spend a final evening with old and new friends. So many memories to take home and cherish forever.
A final lights-out before heading home tomorrow. This is the final post before we see you tomorrow. We hope you’ve enjoyed following our adventures. We can see the thousands of views this past week from home and countries far away. We would like to send our love and we look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow.
For tomorrow, we expect to reach Wolf Canyon around 11:30am – depending on traffic. Again, please check in using the Raptor Safe App and we will do an ID check before releasing students from the auditorium. Thank you!
