My Ideal Day at Camp

The first thing I want to hear in the morning is the sound of  ­­­­­­­­­­­­­  Blank 1    and Ron’s voice ringing loudly over the speaker. All morning when I am at skills I think about ­     Blank 2  Blank 3     Blank 4 . That is just what I need to give me the energy I need for my favorite activity – sock war! The only problem is that I have a sweet tooth, but that will be  Blank 5  by going to the   Blank 6   to get some Reese’s Cups. After working up a sweat during sock war, it feels great to  Blank 7   into the nice cool lake. After free swim, a few friends and I go find  Blank 8  Blank 9 and start building the Blank 10  so we can cook  Blank 11 . But we can’t hang around for too long because we get to go sing campfire songs with Blank 12   Blank 13. There is no better way to end the day than to sit the fire and watch the Blank 14 float into the starry sky.

  1. Blank 1 – The mascot for Texas A&M University’s name is: Texas A&M Traditions.
  2. Blank 2 – What animal loves dancing to “Techno” music: Techno dancer?
  3. Blank 3 – What is the final word in the title of this movie that Elvis starred in back in 1956: Elvis the movie star?
  4. Blank 4 – According to this website, Fun Factz, what is the most productive day of the workweek?

First Round of Frisbee Golf

Posted by phil

Camp Ridgecrest - Middle GreenCamp Ridgecrest is finally free to the snow that was on the ground from before Christmas! Ron, Seth and Phil were anxious to get outside and enjoy the warm-ish weather. As you can imagine, after a long winter, we are excited to get out and have fun around camp!

With the long winter came lots of down trees and power lines around Camp. We’ve started our clean up process, but it’s sure to take us a few months to get camp looking like the beautiful place you all know and love.

With camp just around the corner, you should be getting your Camp Forms in the next few days! Rather than mail them home, your parents will receive an email where everything can be ordered online. Here are a few pictures of some of the clothing for this summer.

And finally, the Spring Ridgecrest Redskin will be in the mail this week. Get excited to see who’s coming back and what you have to look forward to this summer!

Some Clothing Pics:

Ridgecrest Blob T-Shirt Ridgecrest Headress T-Shirt

Ridgecrest Hoddie Ridgecrest Charcoal Sweatpants

For all the clothing for Summer 2010, check out your Email that will be coming be the end of this week!
