Survivor Camp 2012

Survivor Camp was pretty good. The challenges were fun but my favourite was there was one caller and the rest were partnered. Blindfolded, and tied together. The caller had to get others to get puzzle pieces to make a puzzle. The idols were a lot of fun too. The only thing to change about them is that since most of idols were found easily, hide them a little harder. And if possible, give tree mail hints for as many as allowable by leaders.

The dinner was good but for the next one, try to use ingredients that aren’t related to each other. Olives, feta, and tomatoes are all Greek and easy to use. Maybe try something such as beef (ground), swiss and pesto, which aren’t related at all to increase imagination.

The fire starting / hot dog roasting challenge was also a good challenge and I know went over well with the other tribes. It combines previous knowledge (making fire, cooking hot dogs) with careful handiwork (axes, cooking hot dog). It also helped prepare the people that were going to Competition Camp, as one of the challenges, coincidentally, was fire starting.

These are some of my ideas to make the camp a little better. Overall, this camp turned out great. It was one of my favourite camping trips this year. Most people enjoyed it a lot (I know I did) and was also a good preparation for Comp Camp. This has been my recap of Survivor Camp 2012.
