Day Nine: USA

July 24, 2015Leave a Comment

Today was America day! We woke up hearing the national anthem and seeing red, white, and blue everywhere. The patriotism was in full force and the American flags where flying all around. There was even a massive liberty bell in the dining room. Craig Hodges (two time NBA Champion, formerly of the Chicago Bulls) came after breakfast and gave out autographs to everyone. Throughout the day he gave basketball clinics to the campers and now they’re ready to take on the NBA! By lunch we kicked-off deal day with t-shirts for everyone a warm welcome for the people from Deal. After lunch we headed outside where the most incredible carnival ever was set up! There were all kinds of carnival games, a plethora of rides, a face painter, and even a dunk tank!
After the carnival we went to the social hall where the people of Deal were set up inside with booths ready to hand out awesome free stuff to the campers! There were electronics, sneakers, remote controlled cars, t-shirts, and tons more. The campers got to walk around the room and take whatever they liked! After dinner we went to the front of camp where we preformed our song and dance a couple more times. The second time around we threw paint up into the air and it was super cool! Everyones white deal day shirts turned into colorful tie-dye shirts.
To end off America day we went to the middle of camp where we got to watch an epic fireworks show! Everyone got glow-sticks to wave during the show and it was awesome!

God Bless America,
Moshe
