Our visitors from Deal came with loads of presents for all the campers. Colorful bags, dolls, sunglasses, and towels were just a few of the awesome prizes that they brought! Every lucky camper walked out with huge bags stuffed with presents. After dinner, we had a Chinese Auction! Campers got dollars throughout the day that they kept in their Chinese purses, and used those to get tickets to put in for the awesome prizes! Our super fun day didn’t end there! We had an amazing Chinese performance where they even taught us how to speak some Chinese words and how to wave the ribbons like a professional Chinese dancer! What a fun day! Can’t wait to see what tomorrow has in store for us!

More From Our Day In China
We had a Great Wall of China game headed by Mrs. Ching Chong. Each division received folded boxes and had to put together the boxes and see who could build the biggest and tallest wall. After that, they were given blow up balls and threw them around trying to knock down the other teams’ walls. We all had lots of fun! Everyone got to decorate their own Chinese umbrellas afterwards and enjoy refreshing ices and candy from the giving tree. Can’t wait to see what special activity will be!
