Castaway Club 3: Carnival Night!

One of our favorite evenings is Carnival Night.  Its a late night, but we've allowed Logan to be a part of the event each week.  Sometimes, if Bennett is well rested, he and I stay out for the fun, too.  Its a surprise for the campers after they come out of Club to see an entire carnival set up.  Its pretty magical to all of us...imagine for a young boy like Logan.  Amazing.  Here are some photos from the Carnivals we've been to this month....

Logan and John with the carnival sign, sitting on the tractor..."thumbs up", if you can't quite see it on the photo.

Pretend driving...another "thumbs up".

Carnival in action!  There are games for the kids to play, they collect "money" which allows them to buy tickets to dunk their leader in the dunk tank, give them a pie in the face, or squirt them with shaving cream.

We often come out to the carnival a little early so Logan can play a few games as the Summer Staff are setting up, before all the kids come out.  Here's Logan playing some golf with our good friend, Kate.

Enjoying a late night snack: some popcorn with Dad!

The whole family at the carnival!


Last week this was the view as we headed home...camp is such a special place and nights like this just can't be topped:
