For the older children, I also asked them to sketch both Häli and Sten wearing Viking props like a helmet, shield and sword. We definitely have some artists in the groups.
After a delicious lunch of mini pizzas and salad we held two chess tournaments for the campers. Since most of the campers already knew the rules of the game I decided to run two mini tournaments for the two age groups. Each tournament was 4 rounds of 15 minutes each. The winner was decided by accumulated opponent’s pieces. The winners for the Junior campers were: Hudson 1st place, tied for second Halle and Tanner, tied for third Hazel and Gwenny. The winners for the Senior campers were: Brendan 1st place, second place Joosep and tied for third place Wynter and Sten.
Kudos to Karen Must and the entire Summer camp staff and counsellors for providing such an activity laden day for the campers. Thank you to both Häli and Sten who provided piano background classical music during the art sessions. The music added so much to strengthen the creative spirit in each of the campers during the art session. It was a good day.
