| GREAT WEEK TRIPLE C!!!!! The light rain showers were very welcome as we celebrated GO ENVIRO! The grass, the trees, and the decrease in temperature that followed the liquid sunshine DELIGHTED all!

Pioneer Power! (K-1st Grades)
The Pioneers were Nutty about Nature this week! The Pioneer boys enjoyed learning about campfire safety, then making some delectable treats! The Pioneer girls took a different approach to their delectable treats-instead of a hot campfire, they cooled off with fruit smoothies! The Pioneers conquered Kinser's climb, got down 'n dirty exploring for creatures, and completing a camo-hunt with HEATHER, the Triple C Nature Specialist. The pool was a big hit for the pioneers-in addition to continuing their swimming skills, campers learned some water games from MERRYL, DEAN, and EMILY. Trailblazers Rock! (2nd-3rd Grades)
What a week for the Trailblazers! The heat didn't stop them from exploring the grounds of Triple C. Everything from repairing their forts, to painting pet rocks (which they found hiking Kinser's Climb), to pine cone bird feeders, the Trailblazers kept busy. The ladies with ALEXIS and LATIEFAH kept cool this week playing games like Drip, Drip, Splash, and flying down the Slip 'n Slide. TAMMY and RACHEL beautified their girls with Tie Dyed T-shirts, fingernail painting, and jewelry making. The Trailblazer boys had an exciting Capture the Flag challenge on Friday morning. The guys preferred focusing their week on learning new nature games like quick frozen critters, and improving their athletic skills in badminton, volleyball, soccer, baseball, kickball, and much, much more. It's hard to believe the week has come to an end already. Who knows what next week will bring the Trailblazers as they prepare for the Luau... Got to Explore (4th-6th Grades)
Teen Scene on Tour (6th-8th Grades) This week we spent time getting back to nature! On Monday, campers got a chance to spend time with MILDRED and the animals, hike Kinser's Climb with HEATHER, play Lacrosse and Volleyball with ADAM, brave the Challenge Course with KATY MAC and chill with their counselors at the POOL. The Teen Scene's out of camp adventure began on Tuesday with a trip to Chiles Peach Patch in Crozet. Campers picked a plethora of peaches, then headed to Mint Springs for an afternoon hike. On Wednesday morning, campers helped beautify Charlottesville with the assistance of the crew at Parks and Rec., and organized at the McIntire Recycling Center. After their hard work, they ventured over to Kegler's for a bowling extravaganza. On Thursday, the Teen Scene enjoyed all that Walnut Creek had to offer: canoeing, hiking, swimming and communing with nature. Back in camp, Friday's choice activities dazzled the teen scene as they rode, swam, soared on the ropes course and so much more
