Creature Comforts!

It was Susky village’s over-night on Wednesday and the weather thankfully held off for the occasion.

The girls packed out from the Bud Cox trip centre and everyone collected their sleeping bags, water bottles, tarps and everything else needed for a successful night, rainbow cushions included.

Cabins camped out at Trickle Brook, Big Tree Field and Saw Mill and there was a smell of campfire all throughout the valley. Pitta Pizzas and S’mores were on the menu and camp stories and songs were the nights entertainment.

Over-nights are a lot of campers favourite part of the Summer Camp experience and it’s really special for the counsellors also.

Next week it’s the turn of Lakota and Outpost for their overnights.
