Sing and a Showdown



Green won Color War for the second summer running. I have some pictures of the action--the showdown in the Widman gym, that is. I also have some pictures of Sing, just so you can picture it. Fairly intense event. It was also so hot and humid in there it was hard to breathe. Pretty miserable. Charlotte fell asleep beside me and started to snore and Katie Johnson elbowed her to wake her up. That was funny.
Sing is an event where all the campers and counselors learn the different team songs and then they all quietly file into the fieldhouse and sit in these 3x3 grid squares on the ground. They move the same, stand the same, sit down the same, sing the same--all to the directions of a Bunk 1 girl up front. Very intense. The front is a backdrop with Bunk 1 girls sitting there frozen, to create a tableau. It is cool, just kinda cult-like for the first viewing.
The showdown is when we all find out who won Color War. The winner of the 'fight'--see the characters involved?--hold up one of those kids in the picture to let everyone know in the end. Green won. It was a sweet fight yet again. Spiderman leaped into the window sill with the help of a mini-tramp and there was lots of throwing things around.
Next 2 days are just cleaning and packing.
