Merrie-Woode Creations

Chug-a-wump! I had such an art-filled day today. First, I visited Stained Glass, where I found campers foiling and soldering their latest creations. From stars to hearts to some seriously intricate pieces, I am constantly amazed at the creations that come out of that class! After

Everybody Cut Footloose!

I was in a dancing mood this morning, so I popped over to Tap Class to see what they were up to. The girls were looking fantastic in their tap shoes, and their “Footloose” routine looks amazing! I could barely keep up. Later in the day I took a nap in the Fritz Orr Memorial, only

Painting the [Camp] Red!

I was sleeping on the roof of the Nature Nook when I awoke to chatter and laughter. It was Nature Class! They were planting lima beans in cotton to see if the plants could grow without soil. I can’t wait to see how it works out! Equipped with my favorite baseball cap, I scurried

It’s the climb…

Oh what a day! We had perfect weather to be down at the docks, so I scampered down to see what Canoeing was up to today! I watched as girls worked hard on their landings, and I learned so much about handling a canoe. I was just about to go take a little nap when I heard

Family Feud!

Today I awoke in my hiding place in the trees feeling full of folly! I put on my favorite baseball cap and swung through the trees down to the lake for my usual morning swim. When I got there, I saw a swim class already getting in the lake. It was the Would-Be Captains! They were

Kookaburra Sits on the Old Gum Tree…

What a beautiful Sunday! Because of the holiday weekend, we had a few guests and alumni visiting with us today! In Chapel, my dear friend John Brantley was our guest speaker. We also had several song performances today, including a lovely performance by our very own Glee Club!

Happy 4th of July!

We had a wonderful time celebrating Independence Day here at Merrie Woode! After a patriotic breakfast of waffles with strawberries and blueberries, everyone gathered at the flag pole for the flag raising. The Glee Club sang a beautiful rendition of the National Anthem! Then, the

I Can See Clearly Now

We had another rainy morning here at camp, so I decided to stop by Tajar to see what Sewing and Knitting were up to! The campers in Knitting were hard at work on their Herbies! In Sewing, they are making fun scrunchies—they can’t wait to show them off around camp! When the sky

Ain’t Gonna Rain No More

Oh how I love Thursdays! With pizza for lunch, yummy Bag Supper, and Movie Night to boot, it’s many campers’ favorite day of the week! It’s also not a bad day for some much-needed rain. Last night’s rain turned to a sunny morning, just in time for some of the girls in Kayaking to
