England Day 55: Camp A for the win! Oh wait. You want a rematch? Talent show style? Bring it on, AGAIN!

Friday was a fantastic day. When we got to camp, our boss told us that Camp A had one the Blitz off! It was such a nice win. During our morning blitz, we told the kids that we had won. But after we told them, Carlie informed us that we had a note from King's Camp challenging us to a talent show. We accepted the offer and started pulling kids for the show. We had them practice their talents in the eight categories. We knew we could take them!

We then went to clubs and in cooking club we made muffins for Camp A presents. The kids loved making the muffins and it was a good last day in the club. We then had lunch and break. After lunch I had to go to open rec for part of the day before going out to the talent show!

We gathered both camps outside and the chants begin even before we sat down. Camp A was loud and overpowering and we did an awesome job getting ready for the competition to begin. It was a great time and the kids did so well. Some of the categories include best hula hooper, freak or unique talent, stacking cups, gymnastics, best cartwheel, and more. It was so fun to see the kids up their trying their best to win in each category. We had 3 kids for each category try their best to win. Towards the end, King's Camp was up 6 to 3. Our only chance was the most moving camp song which was worth 3 points. Our kids did the World's Greatest and signed the whole thing. We won that one and tied it up! It was a great way to end the competition. After the competition, King's Camp had the Camp A counselors stand at the front and wanted to thank us for the pieing yesterday.... by spraying us with water. lol. It was all in good fun and I just stood their and took it because I knew they were going to do something to pay us back. But it was funny none the less. :)

After the talent show, I went back to open rec for the rest of the day. It was nice to sit and hang out with the kids. I got to meet some of the King's Camp staff as well and they were all very nice. When open rec was over, we headed home to have a relaxing weekend. We rented a few movies for the weekend and watched the proposal that night before going to bed. It was a nice night.

Cheerio.
