Day 4 Challenge and Champions/Activities

Hello all! I hope your experience at Challenge and Champions has been enjoyable so far this week. During the course of this week, we have had three daily challenge winners: Keianni Graham, Dazanay Jones, and Kailah Simpson. For the campers who didn't win during those days, there is a chance of winning each day. This morning, we learned the motto: "You are not a leader if you're not a learner. I am someone special."  This will be the basis of our daily activities and the campers will continue to learn more of the motto each day.Today, we are adding new activities to the schedule: SPECIALS! They include Cooking, Yoga, Art, Magic, Explosions, and African Drumming. In Cooking on Wednesday the students made a refreshing cesar salad. On Friday, they will make Pull Pork Ribs. YUM! After a day of getting accustomed to their daily schedule, the campers relieve their stress by the practice of Yoga. After lunch,the campers disperse into Camp and Beach Games, Basketball,The Majors, Badmintion, and Soccer.This week in the Majors the campers have had Intense games of Football and Baseball.The Badminton students have been learning rules of the game,and have been participating in competitive mini matches. Soccer Students have been working on their dribbling skills and have progressed to passing the ball to one another. In Beach games, the campers learned to play paddle ball. Sounds EXCITING! After a vigorous workout outside, students go to the pool to cool off before their time to go home.

You forgot to mention that beach games did not only learn paddleball but also held a padddle ball tournament that was amazingly competitive. Everybody seemed to enjoy it!
