When SAM Campers Are In Camp, We Enjoy... - Farm & Wilderness

Written by Miles Crabtree | August 04, 2021

The second week of SAM Camp started with a round of activities, including fairy houses, Wilderness Adventurers (shelter building and wet-weather fire building), woodworking, candle making, gymnastics, Rube Goldberg machines, fashion design, quilt squares, comic writing, and of course games and swimming every day!

This year, we have 4 cabins divided into two pods and each pod gets to choose between 2 activities during each block. We generally get time together as a whole camp in the evenings, when we participate in an event we call Identity Night, or the Variety Show in which campers and staff get to show off their many talents to the group. This year’s Variety Show included a three-headed all-knowing person, many musical acts, jokes, stories, juggling, and a water drinking performance.
