Kick that ball

Alida kicks off for the Blues.

The Pinks are out in force and ready to return that ball!



GO TEAMS!!



Pink and Blue Bowling

There's nothing like a game of bowling to get a group into the spirit of the day.

Callie rolls for the Blues.

Baby B goes for the Pinks





Check out Riley's form!




They hold their collective breath.... YES!! It's a STRIKE!!






PINK and BLUE Tug of War

No Unit competition would be complete without a Tug of War - over water, of course.


But being so fearful of getting wet, everyone let go at the same time and down they all went


. . .



tumbled dry!!


Decorate your Duckie

Each table has an advisor to help with running heats, tags, and decorating. Each camper chose a letter tag - some matched their names, others chose meaninful letters. Baby B chose an "X" because it's a letter she can make by herself. She loves her Duckie.
And by the way, they GLOW IN THE DARK!! How cool is that?


















All the Ducks are decorated and tagged.

LET THE RACES BEGIN!!!





The amazing Pink and Blue Rubber Duckie Races

The Pink and Blue units hold heats to decide which of their ducks is the fastest.

The Blue Unit runs their heats first.



Alida and Jean go Duck to Duck - Alida wins by a beak.



Hattie wins her heat against Callie, and you know what happens next. She's OK, though.


Berdie and Rose, sisters, have at it, but in a fun way. Rose comes out on top.



The three Blue winners have a final heat to decide who is fastest. Doc is standing by to make sure Riley isn't overcome. The first time around, it's a tie between Riley and Rose.




Good thing Doc was there behind her - Riley's Duck wins for the Blues.






More semi-finals of the duck races

Riley is told to sit to watch for fear the excitement will be too much for her.

Looks as if Colleen is winning this heat.

Baby B's duck is pulling ahead of Hittymine's.


Lisa and Hattie have a go, with Lisa's duck the faster swimmer.



In the decider heat, Colleen's duck is the fastest. She will represent

the Pinks in the final challenge against the Blue's duck owned by Riley.




And here we go....






Grand Finale

The final heat. And the winner is...

They are both winners, but...


Colleen and her Irish duckie won the day!!!
