The campers were so excited to officially begin camp that they woke up before 7:30 AM; instead of the staff waking up the campers, the campers woke up the staff! Arts and Crafts, Heritage, Armenian Language and Religion classes all went smoothly. The participation was outstanding.
After free time, the campers were ready for sports and swimming. With this week’s heat wave, swimming ended up being the highlight of the day’s activities.
Our evening began with a visit from our Primate, Archbishop Khajag Barsamian. After dinner and a group photo, he spoke with our campers about the uniqueness of Armenian heritage. Also introduced to us this evening was Father Shnork Souin, who is going to be with us for the whole week. After our talk with Srpazan, the junior and teens each got to play a game of Scattergories.
The official first day of camp was full of humor and memorable moments, and it will only increase each and every day.
