Jack prefers a half-day of theater, is an art lover, gardener, takes guitar lessons, and appreciates having free time.

Morning, 9-12
He starts his day in the garden because it’s still cool; today vegetables are being harvested and being taken over to the kitchen. Once the veggies are picked and washed, he heads up to the art studios to continue the collage he started yesterday. At 11:30 he goes to “free swim” at the pool, which is available every day 11-12. Everyone goes back to the cabins at Noon to get ready for lunch at 12:30.

After lunch is a Rest Period. Jack takes a nap, and then writes a letter home. 

At 2:35 the whole camp gathers for the One-Minute Performance at 2:35 and a recap of afternoon offerings. Today a group of 20 dancers gather on the hillside to perform a graceful one-minute piece. They look like reeds blowing in the wind. Every day is something different! 

Afternoon, 3-5
Jack’s in a play that rehearses in the afternoons, so most days he’s with his director and fellow cast-members all afternoon. Today his guitar teacher arranged with the play’s director to release him for a lesson. So, he has his guitar lesson 3:00-3:30, and spends 3:30-5:00 in rehearsal. At 5:00 the whole camp gathers for the “5:00 special,” an informal performance. Today it is some awesome original songs by two camper-formed bands! The whole camp goes to dinner at 5:30 after the performance.

Free time, 6:30-7
Very few activities are scheduled during this half-hour. Jack decides to find a quiet spot to practice the material from the afternoon’s guitar lesson.

Evening Activities, 7-8
Jack heads back to the art studios to continue work on his collage; he’s really excited about this piece. At 8:00 everyone goes back to the cabins to put on long sleeves and long pants, grab a flashlight, and then go the evening program.

Evening Program, 8:40
Tonight the program is a Bonfire, with performances by campers and staff. Jack attends with his cabin, and enjoys the cool evening, bright fire, and rousing songs. Snacks are served, which his cabin-mates helped to make earlier today in the Food Education program!
