Hi!
This is Sherry and Kenny, and we are the counselors at Edison! Time has flown by these past five weeks. Edison has been quite busy with students finding their inner entrepreneurial skills in Lemonade Stand, challenging their brains with math problems in Math Olympiad, and perfecting their icing skills in Cake Design. Each week we are impressed by our campers many talents outside of the classroom, whether it be killing it on the soccer field, creating original Halloween costumes, or strategically aiming their water shooters. Edison may only be on a half-day schedule, but we have more than half the fun. Announcing for the first time to the public, we have created the first-ever "International Ivy Quiz Bowl!" Twice this summer, students have tested their knowledge with everything from geography, to world cuisine, to sports. Do you know what hummus is made out of? Do you know where your larynx is? Well, you better find out quickly before campers buzz in their answer! A fan favorite at Edison is gaga. Luckily enough for our campers, we have our very own gaga pit located on the playground. Every Tuesday, students sprint to the pit and battle to be the last person standing in this awesome game of non-stop concentration and coordination. We are saddened that there are only 3 more weeks left, but then we remember, weeks 6 and 7 will be FULL-DAY (hooray!)! We already preparing our crazy hair, special backwards schedule, and mix and match day! Edison is just busy, busy, busy. Well, kickball is only 20 minutes away, so we have go grab the bases.
Until next time,
Sherry and Kenny,
Edison Counselors
