What to do on a rainy day

They took the big pink Camp 'Wanna Do bus over to the Pavilion to spend the day working on some indoor activities. First up were scrapbooks. They had to make decisions about decorating the covers and kept changing their minds.

They got a good start on them, but will have to finish them later. There were other things to do in the Pavilion today.



Hooray - it's our last camper!

The girls were having so much fun they didn't even notice.

Hitty G drove the new camper back to Miss Prim at the Capital Convention Center where she was fitted for her uniform. Miss Prim said that, because the two units were even in number, she could choose which color sash she wanted. She chose pink to match her pretty unders.

Introducing Holly Kerfoot's Hitty Lowla from NC. They were so excited to have her that the Hitty G forgot to give Lowla her ID badge.

















It's Nature Lesson Day

Mary Moonwalker is a nature expert and guest of the camp. She explains the importance of holding still and being very quiet to observe animals in their natural habitat. She shows the girls some different types of animals they might find in the woods.

She chats with campers.

There were eager questions from the girls.



Sweet dreams, campers



I think I hear someone walking out there.

What do you think it is?


Doc does a bed check.



Goodnight, campers.

Here come the campers

All the campers had to take off their clothes to be fitted for their uniforms. Clever Hitty Colleen grabbed a sheet to cover up the fact that she had arrived without any unders, then stood there as if wearing a sheet were the most natural thing in the world. Hitty Riley wasn't so quick.


Sure enough, someone noticed and pointed out to the rest that the only thing between Hitty Riley and the whole world was her name tag!! Of course everyone looked, and that embarrassed poor Riley who just stood there wondering, "Mom, what were you thinking?"

Quite used to Hitty Mom's who don't pay close attention to what their campers have packed or not packed, Miss Prim secured unders for Colleen and Riley. Then she let Riley be the first to get fitted.


Now turn around and I'll tie the sash. Perfect!



Meet our first camper, Michelle Kirby's Hitty Riley.
