The day camps at the American West Heritage Center were a huge success! We had 25 campers in the first week, and 26 the second. The kids got to milk a cow, throw tomahawks, learn about mountain men, pan for gold, ride ponies and the train, and do all sorts of crafts. They had a blast, and we did too! We are so grateful to the American West Heritage Center, especially Nelda and her counselors – Tammi and Jessica. Here are a few pictures from Week 1 to show how excited the campers were! I will update with more pictures from Week 2 and a link to our Picasa Web Album soon.
Several of the campers and one assistant jump for joy!

Here are the campers on the last day of day camp, week 1!
Next week, we start day camp at Stokes Nature Center. We are super excited for these camps; this group of campers will get to stay one night overnight!
