Nature week camp -out
By BY B. TH SWEENEY
AND KRISTEN STEPHEN
Many of us have never
taken time to listen to, feel
and smell nature. Monday
provided us with the cp-
portunity to do this.
We identified trees by their
texture and listened to bird's
sounds. Everything was
pulled into place by a hike
through the bush. (The wild
raspberries were good too! )
Tuesday was the first
rainy day of our summer
program so far. That didn-
't bother us though since
we were kept very busy
inside. We were surprised to
find out that we enjoyed
doing macrame, once we
learned a few basic knots
and we all agreed that it
was very good rainy day
craft.
On Wednesday each one
of us arrived at the arena
with an old T-shirt in hand
ready for tie dying. After we
saw our finished products we
all decided our new
colourful T-shirts would be
the official garb of our camp -
out the next day.
Thursday saw us loaded
down with tents, sleeping
bags, food and clothes. Then
it was off to Ken Gascho's
farm for the night. We went
to our tents around 11:30
p.m. full of hot dogs, corn on
the cob and marshmallows.
1:45 a.m. and all was noisy,
but well. Until once again we
were given the chance to use
our sense of smell and we
heard one of the campers
yell, "skunk, skunk,"!
Zippers were quickly zipped
up and we were in for the
night. By 4:30 a.m. we were
all asleep and we were wide
awake (or at least awake) by
7:30 a.m.
Most of us slept Friday
afternoon.

Monday we enjoyed
spending a peaceful morning
in the middle of nature.
Some songs and stories
helped to get across the
message of beauty and
conservation of nature.
Even though it rained on
Tuesday we didn'tstayinside
all morning. We went on a
wet walk!
Wednesday morning we
could be seen and heard
marching and singing
through the streets of Zurich.
After that we made pet
rocks.
Thursday we got to try out
our cooking skills when we
roasted marshmallows over
the barbegues. This was
followed by sand painting
along with numerous games
such as dizzy lizzy„red rover
and tractor.
Friday was a wonderul hot
and sunny day. We made
sand castles - Just like the
one Prince Charles and
Princess Di live in! After
making flower vases from
popsicle sticks we finished
the week off with some nice
cold orange juice.
