Team Competition Begins!

July 3rd, 2019

Peak leaders flank a Robot on the screen in a smoky Rec Hall.

Team Competition has begun. On Monday night dinner was delayed by aliens (well, Peaker aliens, anyway). The Peak called us to the Rec Hall, where the Team Captains and Lieutenants emerged from the smoky stage and led camp outside for an outstanding dance performed the our Peakers. Camp was divided into the Blue and White teams, and, after dinner, each team met to learn cheers, to hear about sportsmanship at the Point and even to get to know their team for the summer. We were so excited about a great year of Team Competition.

In the morning yesterday (Tuesday) we were treated to a “Sunday” schedule (Sunday this week was delayed to allow time for breakout). After honoring many great campers, including our Campers of the Week we held the annual Scavenger Hunt all around camp. The teams were both terrific, and we look forward to the leadership of the great Peak of 2019! (Many more photos are available when you log in.)
