Tadpoles-

The tadpoles had a fantastic week of camp. On Monday the campers escaped from the heat during free swim and swim lessons where they were able to splash around in the cool water. Some kids have improved so much during swim lessons that the lifeguards have moved them up a level in the pool. Everybody had a great time cheering on their team during the Twisted Sports Spin O game on Wednesday as well. The kids showed o their sports knowledge and athletic ability while they competed in the whacky challenges during the game show. Games of kickball, baseball, freeze- tag, and even the MDC original “Find Mr. Rob” have given the kids ample opportunity to run o all their energy. Everyone’s looking forward to a visit from the Philly Phanatic next week! |
