Welcome to Hosmer Point! Students drop their bags off at the theater and get ready for introductions.
GRIT practices handshakes--a new handshake, a new partner! And, a new question to ask each other to learn more about our team.
John meets with team South!
The beautiful view! Students had a scavenger hunt to explore the grounds of camp.
Egg drop teams! This team is one of the winning teams. While the pumpkin exploded, the egg survived!
Now that you've seen all the teams, it's time to drop them!
Which eggs will break?? Which team will win??
The egg survives!!
The pumpkin before it splats...!
Success!
Untangling a human knot during an awesome game of human spoons.
Almost untangled...

Shoes in the bin...
And of course, a potato sack relay!
The view from the theater porch
Kids were really looking forward to some fun time on the water. Some kids started with a volleyball game...
...while others dove right in!
During free play, kids played horseshoes, cornhole, searched for four leaf clovers, played soccer, tetherball, and had a blast.
At the end of the day, we gathered together as a whole team once more to send a pulse through our hands...the group set a goal and tried again and again...and eventually, team GRIT shattered the goal!!
The winners of the compass games...team East!!
Overall, team GRIT had an amazing day at Hosmer Point. Our thanks to the staff for putting together a great day, and props to team GRIT for working together, supporting each other, and having a great start to the year!
