Kanakuk K-1 - Color Catastrophe Party - 6/19/2010

Its a few days late due to me being on a 2-4 but here is footage on the Color Catastrophe Party. If you cannot recognize your kid its probably because they are coverd in watered down Tempera Paint. How did they get clean?....well the fire truck came and sprayed the water in the sky and all the paint was washed off. If you are a mom sending your kid to camp this summer (and they have not arrived for either Month term 2 or 3 or 13 day term 4 or Term 6.....pack clothes you dont care about throwing away. Moms, no fear. We told the kids to wear nothing nice and if in fact it got on something...it does come out!

Then, it was like God was watching down and about 10 minutes later it rained really hard and washed all the paint from the field away! But with the rain came a power outage. What! We were right in the middle of dinner and all the power on our side of the lake goes out. Does that end a Kanakuk Party...NO! Time to bring in the generators. We danced the night away in the dining hall, had our snacks...saved all our food in the walk in fridge and went back to our cabins. Right when the kiddos returned....the lights turned on again!

Anyway, this brings me to another one of my favorite things of kamp....the party never stops. When we have planned something fun for your kids....nothing can stop the fun from happening. (In all safety of course :) We are all about making memories for your kiddos for a lifetime and I really think this one will be in the memory books for a while. They were covered in paint, washed by a fire truck, danced in the rain and partied during a power outage with glowsticks and generators! Until tomorrow!
