It's Halloween here in Princeton!!

Our wacky theme this Thursday is Halloween in July! Our campers came dressed to the nine's in their superhero capes, karate uniforms, homemade emoticons, and of course Elsa! Our campers have a great day playing outside in this beautiful weather and sharing about their favorite costumes.

Celebrating Halloween in July at Chatham

Superheroes, princesses, and stormtroopers, oh my! Tons of campers here at Chatham celebrated Halloween this Thursday, dressing up as cheerleaders, Transformers, and everything in between. Everything was more fun with a costume on, whether we were building robots in class, having a Star Wars battle on the playground, or playing crab soccer in the gym.

Camper S.G. showed her Ivy spirit by dressing as a ghoul.

Some campers came in twos -- campers H.Z. and M.C. were identical in their Transformer suits, and A.F. and M.F. matched as soccer stars. Double trouble!

The counselors were excited to show off their group costume as different holidays! We were feeling festive dressed as Earth Day, Easter, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, and Christmas. 

Halloween in July @ Far Hillz

AHHHHHH!!!!! Its Halloween. In July?? Yes for all you October lovers, at International Ivy we celebrate Halloween in July. On last week's theme Thursday we were put to sleep as campers rolled in with their favorite pajamas, but this week we're sure to be up and ready as this theme Thursday consists of some scary costumes and even some cute ones too. 

This day was brought back by popular demand and there are no signs of it going away soon. Halloween may not be for everyone but when its in the middle of the summer, it definitely brings out the best in all the campers.

 

And yes the counselors and teachers had to join in on the fun. And yes that is a pig in a blanket. 

Week 4 here at Princeton

Our campers here at Princeton hit the ground running with some Minute to Win it Games on morning break.The highlight of the games (and a camper favorite) was Separation Anxiety in which campers must try to separate M&Ms into cups as fast as possible using just one hand! We had a practice round for each camper, then they were off! Check out the finals, came down to a photo finish with a single M&M separating first and second place.

Our week progressed on with wonderful weather and great classes!

Graphic Design and GIMP spent the first class creating their own personal logo that represents them.

Inch Worm

Robotics spent the first half of the week creating, building, and coding their animal creations

Fashion Design and the Sewing Machine didn't waste any time creating their own PJ pants

And of course, everyone's favorite day is Wednesday for WATER DAY!!

Wonderful Wet Day at Short Hills

Campers had a blast at our fourth incredible wet day! Water balloons, water shooters, and dunk tank were a huge hit once again!

Bouncy Day at Oakland

The Sports House lacks any outdoor facilities, making wet day an impossibility in Oakland. Fortunately, we've replaced it with our own version, Bouncy Day. While we may not have fun water-based games, we do have a gigantic inflatable velcro wall. Tons of campers love showing off their tricks on the wall, and we've had some great success.

The campers look upon the beloved velcro wall with pride.

Sticking the landing after a perfect backflip leaves many campers in awe.

Did you know that even falling down is fun?

Counselor Josh is sure jealous of the campers on the wall right now.

"DID ANY OF YOU JUST SEE THAT FLIP?"

He came close to making it up the whole wall, seems like the walk down is always the hardest.

From catching them all to bouncing for break, Oakland's Week 4 looks bright.
