The Campfire

Sunday, March 7th - Evening
Post by: Andrew Davis

For our last activity at SeaCamp, we had a campfire. The night began with a fun game called "Ram, Sam, Sam." In this game, a group of individuals is challenged to complete a song and hand movements in as short amount of time as possible! We we were told that the SeaCamp record was 8 seconds, but after three tries we set a new record: 7.2 seconds! After that we enjoyed listening to Clark and Gavin playing music and singing, we played another game called "Song Wars." In this game we were given a word and then were challenged to think of a song that had the word in the lyrics, and had to sing a verse! After the song game we made s'mores and hung out around the campfire! Clark and Gavin also taught our counselor, Alex, how to play the ukulele - he was a pretty adept student! Finally, at the end of the evening, we heard the famed story of what happened to Flat top 7: this one boat was missing form the fleet and no one would reveal why! The story involved a boat trip that went awry, with the flat top breaking down, children being saved, and a giant squid crushing the boat and sending John adrift! I can't say we all bought it! After this story, we all went around the campfire and said what we enjoyed most about our experience at SeaCamp! When the campfire was over, everyone began to transition to the idea of going home: We were both eager to return to the comforts of home, yet were sad to see our trip end!
