Congo Camp 2010

The Senet board being set up by campers.

In Cracker Barrel, the counselors carried our campers back in time to the Egyptian Era and had them play the game Senet.

This game requires just a board, sticks, and some intelligence.  Our counselors explained how one moves around the board and how to obtain points. 

The campers sat in groups of four and really enjoyed the game.  It was a game very few of them had played before and we're sure many will be playing again when they get home!
