Clubs, Climbing, and Casino Night: A Day Full of Wins

We started the day strong with a morning of lessons and laughter, diving into new topics and working hard together. Everyone was focused and engaged, knowing that the fun wasn’t far behind.

After lunch, we headed out for an exciting adventure: rock climbing. With helmets on and harnesses secured, students tackled climbing walls of all heights and difficulties. Some zoomed straight to the top, while others pushed themselves step by step, cheered on by their friends below. It was a great chance to challenge both body and mind, and the supportive atmosphere made it even more rewarding.

Later in the afternoon, we switched gears for a relaxing round of golfing. The sunny weather and green scenery made for the perfect backdrop. Whether it was their first time or they were seasoned pros, students gave it their best shot—literally. From carefully lining up putts to celebrating unexpected long shots, it was a peaceful and fun way to spend the afternoon.

But the biggest event was still to come: casino night.

As the sun went down, everyone returned to camp and got dressed to impress. From bowties and suits to sparkly dresses and slick hairstyles, the evening had a glamorous feel. Students played games like blackjack, roulette, uno and poker, collecting Wynchemna Dollars and sharing laughs along the way.

To finish off the night, we held an auction using the Wynchemna Dollars everyone had earned. The prize table was full of exciting surprises—plushies, toys, mystery bags, camping gear, and beach accessories. The bidding was fierce but friendly, and everyone walked away with smiles, souvenirs, and great memories.

It was a day that had it all—learning, movement, strategy, and celebration. A reminder that hard work in the morning makes the fun even sweeter by night.
