The Galdiators Return to Camp Ridgecrest

Posted by phil

It all begins with the sound of an old rams horn echoing throughout camp, followed by a charge of central staff dressed as Gladiators surrounding the campers at Retreat. Everyone is then escorted into Spilman Lodge where they take part in a massive feast on 4 large banquet tables! The teams are already separated and their colors are waiting for them on their chairs! They eat with no plates or utensils, but enjoy foot-long Turkey Legs, chicken legs, tater-tots, rolls, bug juice, corn on the cob and more. (Don’t worry, we had some PB&J for those who needed a little extra.)

From dinner they watch a 4 minute compilation of some of the greatest pump up movie excerpts of all time. After being led to the upper green and through a tunnel of torches, the young gladiators had several training exercises that you will see on the video, all leading up to a huge game of This Land is My Land where the young Gladiator do battle against their counselors! In the end, the campers were victorious and the night ended with a few energetic Gladiator Cheers! What a night! Take a look…
