Congo Camp 2010

Our Kayak campers will be enjoying the calming waters.

Although these campers may not be riding waves, they are definitely making them as they paddle their way through waters.

Over the course of the session, these campers have been practicing their kayaking skills off campus. 

We hope they enjoy their day in the water today as they stay away from the heat in the cool waters that surround northern Virginia.

Our Kayak Campers continued practicing their strokes as they moved around the pool.  These campers have been building up stamina to handle the water with ease. 

Today, this stamina will be quite helpful as they have a field trip to go out and kayak on natural water.

These campers can keep their kayaks afloat by showing their ability to balance well inside the boat and keep themselves going in a straight line by evening out their strokes. 

We hope these campers have fun on their first day of being out on the water off campus!

This week a very unique camp will be invading the Congo Camp swimming pool: Kayak Camp.  As you may guess, these campers will be learning how to properly Kayak. 

The campers wasted no time this morning and started off right into the waters.  They were getting around the pool with ease even as the water sloshed back and forth.

We look forward to seeing the many skills these campers demonstrate over the course of the week!
