We Got Brains

There is nothing that would get in the way of our Color War and with the last day of rain for our summer (yes the next 5 days are going to be gorgeous ) we got to business with some pivots. That is why having the best team on the planet who can create a day of competitions independent of the rain, made today amazing. There were points to earn and our campers were ready for it and there is always time for Song practice.

By free play the skies were blue and the rain was gone. The energy is high here and the campers are in it. They have been putting all their energy into their games but tonight it our was brains that we relied on. Quiz night brought out the braniacs and the more you know the better. It was our version of Jeopardy and not only do we have strong and competitive athletes, we have incredibly smart and academic kids and staff. Impressive on all fronts. At the end of Quiz night and after all the events thus far, 18 points separate these two teams (Red Pop 1,666 vs. Gold Country 1,648) with thousands of points still out there. We are halfway through this Color War and regardless of how tired, exhausted, wet, run down we are this is where we dig deep and keep on moving forward. The team depends on all of us and each of us depends on the team. We can’t do it alone and we wouldn’t want to. This is where champions are made.
