TYPICAL DAY
There's Nothing Typical About It
At ESF, we never have 'typical day' at camp. Yes, our camps are incredibly well organized, but they're also wonderfully flexible. That means that we may play one more inning, swim a few extra minutes during our swim period, or work on the perfect free-throw for five extra minutes.
Every day at camp brings different adventures, but here's an example of what a typical day at ESF Camp might be like...from a camper's perspective!
| 9:07 am: Morning Assemblies are COOL! I am my Team's Captain this week so I get to lead the Conference in morning stretches. | 1:04 pm: We are heading to the gym to hear a really cool guest speaker who will give us lots of athletic advice and basketball tips. | |||
| 9:22 am: We arrive at the first station, pick up our lacrosse equipment, and get tips from our Coach before we start our instructional drills. | 1:35 pm: Time for some basketball GAME ACTION! We are playing the Cavaliers, another team in my Conference. | |||
| 10:32 am: SNACK TIME--the perfect ending to a great first period of instruction! | 2:20 pm: I spent some time debriefing with my Coach after the game. She had some great advice for me! I want to be an ESF coach just like her some day. | |||
| 10:45 am: Time to try out all the new skills we learned this morning with some GAME ACTION! I am ready for some friendly competition with the Tar Heels, another team in my conference. | 2:21 pm: CHOICE PERIOD is COOL! We get to choose whether to continue playing sports or go to the pool. Today, I am going to swim. It will be nice to cool off. | |||
| 11:45 am: Our coach said that he was proud of how we played! He said that we showed a lot of effort, teamwork and sportsmanship! | 2:49 pm: I am so excited! I got the right answer to the sports trivia question that my coach asked our Team this morning. Good thing I keep up with all sports. | |||
| 12:15 pm: It is time for lunch with my coach and my team. Most times, I bring my lunch but this week I am eating the "camp lunch." The food at ESF is AWESOME! | 2:55 pm: During the "Awards Ceremony," I received the "Coaches Award" for showing sportsmanship, teamwork, and hustle throughout the week! The medal is so COOL! | |||
| 12:46 pm: Time for afternoon stretching and warm-ups! | 3:29 pm: Time to go home! Camp is AWESOME! I can not wait to do it all over again next week. |
