VLOG: Largest Water Balloon Fight of their Life
Posted by philIt’s not every day that your camper gets the chance to enjoy a 19,000 water balloon showdown. We spent three days filling about 20 over-sized 50 gallon trash cans with water balloons. It’s didn’t take 30 minutes for our boys to throw every last balloon. It’s an absolute blast that they can’t experience anywhere else. Watch this footage…

VLOG: Country Breakfast!
Posted by philTwice a summer our Central Staff hosts a breakfast for the entire camp. You’ll find loud music, pancakes, bacon, and of course our famous cheese grits! The Grit Train is always a hit! While it’s easily the most energetic breakfast of their year, it almost always ends up in a brief food fight. Oh the fun things that only happen at Camp Ridgecrest! Watch this short video…

VLOG: Bedlam Ball With a Little Newspaper Party on Top
Posted by philWe had a ton of fun playing Bedlam Ball in the rain! Once we were good and soaked, we transitioned inside to play a Newspaper Party… a camp favorite! But we weren’t done there… after we had the boys good and tired, we relaxed and watched a movie at Ridgecrest Cinema. It was a packed night, and they had a blast! Watch how much fun they had!

VLOG: Camp-wide Clue
Posted by philYou may remember the classic game of Clue. Sometimes it’s a board game, sometimes it’s an event held at a bed and breakfast, but this time it’s a huge game with all 325 campers and staff at Camp Ridgecrest for Boys! There were 11 suspects, 8 weapons, 8 possible dates, 8 rooms where the crime could have taken place, and 8 motives that the campers had to decide between. The camp was broken into teams that had to run around the property completing small challenges in order to learn facts about the crime. If you completed the challenge, then you received a clue. The first team to solve the mystery was declared the winner!
Perhaps the funniest part of the game is the end when the mystery unfolds before their very eyes. Our “characters” act out the hilarious crime as answers to the questions are revealed one at a time. It was fun to play, and hysterical to watch. This game is a camper and staff favorite. Here is a sneak peak…

VLOG: A Country Breakfast
Posted by philAn average meal at Camp Ridgecrest is exciting. It’s loud, tons of energy, lots of food, laughter, cheering, singing, stomping and clapping… it’s just a good time. But there is one morning, twice a summer, where breakfast is a little bit rowdier than a typical day at camp. The best part of this breakfast is that it’s only the beginning of the best day of the session. This breakfast was followed by skills, SockWar, and then Organized Crime. It’s the day that never ends…and they love it. Check out this short clip from breakfast!

VLOG – Bedlam Ball
Posted by philHave you ever been to Wal-Mart or Target and seen those cages full of the large inflatable balls? I feel like every kid wants to grab one of those balls and play with it. That’s what inspired this Camp Ridgecrest game! We took 120 over-sized balls and placed them in a huge pile in the middle of a field. The entire camp, broken up into 10 teams, each guarding their own goal… we call it Bedlam Ball. It’s one of the campers’ favorites! Watch this short clip!
