Campers V.S. Counselors

 Campers getting ready to win a game of running bases! The energy and camp spirit was at an all time high today after winning two soccers games yesterday. Games like running bases, soccer, and capture the chicken are a camp favorite and a great way to take a break from classes. 

Kickball Mania at Lincroft

This week at Lincroft, a few enthusiastic returning campers have been requesting Lincroft's all-time favorite pastime: KICKBALL!

Kickball is a game that brings together campers of all ages and talents. As we prepare for rain later in the week, we have been enjoying the fresh air as much as we can!

Campers Bryce and Ian debrief after a particularly controversial play.

Counselor Melissa eyes the plate before throwing a great pitch.

A tense moment as campers Ian and Karan race for first base.
With counselor Melissa as automatic pitcher and instructor Ryan as ghost runner, we make up for our tiny teams with a lot of enthusiasm. There may only be nine of us here at Lincroft, but we play hard!
