Girl Scout Camp Champions 2017

Kate and I and her Troop 578 headed to Camp Champions this past weekend.  We had 9 Moms and 12 girls come from our troop.  It was so fun to have a bigger group this year and we finally had wonderful weather!!!!

Kate and I carpooled with 2 other Moms and their girls and went as a group with 4 other Moms.  We stopped at Blue bonnet Cafe for dinner before checking into camp.

Once we got settled into camp, we headed out to decorate our table!

Now that the girls are Brownies, they got to try out archery and kayaking!  First we had games, then rockclimbing and then kayaking.

As Robin, their troop leader says, they do really all love each other

hugging their troop leader!

Here they are playing games.  The girls loved the guy doing games and even asked him to sit with them at dinner!!

they taught him this game

Then rockclimbing.

Kayaking.  It was super windy, so the girls kept getting pushed into the shore.  Kate was so determined to do it--she said--I will not give up!!  I was so proud of her!!  She loved it!

Then we had lunch and headed to archery.

We got free hats at lunch and girls loved them!!

 Then we went on our nature walk.  There is this old house that we have taken pictures of the girls in front of every year.

And here are our Brownies in the same place.  The tradition continues . . . 

Then we went fishing, unfortunately no one caught a fish and then to the pool.  All the girls were so excited to go swimming!!

After pool, reptiles.  The girls got to hold a snake!!!

Then dinner, group photo, SWAPS and then skits!

And the survivors of Camp Champions 2017 (with the free hats on)

It was a wonderful weekend!!  I already can't wait to go back!!
