It made our day to see he sports a pair of his own hearing aids!įriday: We had fears of being rained out but drizzle cannot stop a gang of wild campers who want to get messy. He shared a few tips on safety and teamwork, signed autographs and then played toilet paper football with us. Thursday: Today we were able to meet Redskins football player Mike Nelms. Wednesday: Our in-house Santa Claus and Deaf community leader, Roy Collins, taught us about the many uses our paracord bracelets, bandanas and walking sticks could afford us.

Monday: “Fredericksburg Arts” artist, Chris O’Kelly, came to our camp to teach us about how to incorporate nature into our art/crafts time. Each year, we try to somehow include a community project and this year’s rocks became part of the community’s Take One, Leave One rock garden, which can be found in front of Fredericksburg Baptist Church.įriday (It's My World to Create): The original “Color War” for Signs of Fun was a BLAST!! From the parents’ comments, that was our best MessFest day ever, so we will continue next year our Color War event! We bought them from Thursday (When Two Worlds Collide): We got into the “rock craze” and I purchased many large sized rocks (we had younger children so we did not want to take the chance of rocks being swallowed) for painting.

Wednesday (Sometimes I Need to Escape): We bought kite kits for each camper and were able to fly them by the end of our arts and crafts class. They took them home after decorating and we heard many families lit up the night sky Tuesday night. Our craft for the day was a Sky Lantern for each participant. Tuesday (Cherish New Opportunities): We were able to pay for 36 campers to visit Sky Zone and jump “Up In the Air” and we had way more than two “worlds” colliding but it was fun, nonetheless. With four teams, it was crazy! We went through quite a few bags of apples and wound up with applesauce for our MessFest on Friday. Monday’s was the Newton’s Apple game where we all had the challenge to stack apples on top of each other within a minute.

Monday (Sometimes I Throw My Hands Up): Along with our food for the day, we also played minute to win it games. Keith Wann was our special guest this year and wow! He made it a very special year! Thursday: After-hours, campers went to Sky Zone and bounced their hearts out.įriday: Campers and community members worked together to break a world record of chalk murals. We're not certain what the officers were thinking! But it was AWESOME!!! Whereas we feel for the police officers' eardrums, it was technically his fault for allowing our campers to play with the sirens all day. In addition, a police SUV from Alexandria Police Department came to talk to campers about the profession and demonstrate the rumble siren which alerts motorists to the police car by vibration, instead of sound. Wednesday: BUCKSHOT, a10,000lbs H2 Hummer Monster Truck, drove up to camp and got campers revved up! Campers watched a demonstration of the truck driving, talked to the driver, and climbed into the truck. Customs and Border Control helicopter flew in and landed on campgrounds! Children were able to watch its arrival and departure, learn about the pilot's job, ask questions, and climb into the helicopter. Monday: Spotsylvania County Volunteer Fire Department brought an ambulance and ladder truck. During this year, our motto was 'the bigger, the better.'
