First Day of camp!

Today was a really fun day. We started the day practicing lots of things and teaching the councilors all of our songs and dances.
All the kids started showing up in the early afternoon, although we were put way behind schedule by a bus load of the kids getting caught in a heavy storm and arriving very late. We are all quickly making friends with all the national councilors and now we just have to get the kids to open up come out of their shells and try to speak a little english.
This evening we taught several of our songs to the group and even got the whole group doing the cotton eyed joe in two big room sized circles. They all seem very enthusiastic about singing and dancing and that just makes leading and teaching that much more fun and easy.
