Mylor+Camp+2010!

M y l o r a d v e n t u r e c a m p 2 0 1 0 ! On the 11th of October Mr. M’s class Mrs. Beverly and our class went to Mylor Adventure camp. We went home on the 13th of October. On the 11th of October we caught a bus down to Mylor adventure camp. When we got there we unloaded our luggage and went to the dining hall. The staff told us some rules and boundaries. Then we took our bags to our cabins, I was in number 3. After we went down to the playground. At the playground there was a tyre swing, a balancing beam a slippery dip and a fireman pole. After we played for a while we had our lunch. At 1:30 we had our first activity. My first activity was free time swimming. We were swimming in an indoor pool. We were allowed to play with inner tubes, noodles and balls. It was really fun. For my next activity I had native animal talk. The ladies name was Ann. First she showed us two joeys their name were Rosemary and Thyme. Ann also showed us to adult possums and one baby possum. The two adult possums were eating rose petals. We weren’t aloud to pat the joeys or the baby possums but we could pat the two adult possums. At 4:00 my group had bridge building. It was at the creek. We had three crates, 3 pieces of wood and 2 pieces of rope. I fell in the creek about five times. Our group won getting there but then we could only use the crates and 5 people needed too be on the crates. Both teams worked together to get back across because we would have six crates. On the way back I fell in the creek and got two big bruises and a cut on my hand. We eventually made it back across then went to the dining hall and waited for the other groups. When it was 6:30 we had night time activities. Maddy, Lauren and I played on the tire swing the whole time. We had supper then went to bed. On day 2 at 9:30 we had the flying fox for my groups first activity. Maddy and I were first to go down. It was really cool. We got strapped into a harness then the harness was clipped on to the wire. The 2nd time I went down with Chantelle. It was really fun. The scariest part was when you were about to jump off. At 11:15 we had orienteering. There were 14 clues we had to find. My group finished 1st but got the 2nd in the points. We really enjoyed it. The hardest clue to find was the one on the basketball courts because it was on the backboard. At 1:30 I had raft making. It was girls vs. boys. We had 3 inner tubes 3 pieces of rope and some wood. The boys got in the water first and won the race but we beat them taking it apart and won! At 3:15 we had the giant swing. I was about the 4th person and the 1st girl. I went over halfway. It was really scary when you were about to pull the green ball. It was up away from the campsite a bit but not very much. After the giant swing we had free time we played outside and in our cabin. After dinner we had night time activities, we played for a bit then had red faces. My favourite act was the Vegemite Kids the people in the group were Maddy, Kate, Julia Foodila and katelyn. Maddy put vegemite in her hair. There group won Red faces. After Red faces we had a teddy bear competition, I didn’t win anything though. After that we had supper and went to bed. We had to pack our bags and everything else before 8am. I was 1st to finish packing in my cabin. When we finished we took our bags to the dinning hall and had breakfast. At 9am I had low ropes. We all got in groups of 3 or 4. I was with Kate Lauren and Julia. Julia was 1st on the low ropes and I was 2nd. My favourite part of low ropes was the chicken run, its were you walk across 2 thin wires with nothing to hold on to you just have to walk across. Luckily you had spotters to help you so you didn’t fall. At 10:20 we had the bouldering wall. In bouldering wall we also had spotters. Instead of it going up it went across. My partner was Kate. No one made it across completely. We played games to rest our hands in the middle. Then at 11:30 we went straight to initiative pursuit. Its an obstacle course and you need to use team work to get through it. My favourite thing was when you had to use the tire swing to swing to the other side. At 12:35 we had lunch. Then we said thankyou to everyone and put our bags on the bus and went home. When we got back to school my mum picked me up early. I was really tired but I enjoyed camp. The food was nice and the camp was the best camp ever even though I was really really tired.
