Start of thursday

Thursday is valentines day, and I'm proud to say my camper wore an adult diaper this morning and dressed as cupid!

 The lake is so much fun to go too.

 The blob will make you fly

 swimming with friends. ..

 Zip Lining!

 Obstacle course races, this is a new lake toy this year!

 : )

I mentioned my camper wore an adult diaper as cupid for breakfast, well for lunch she challenged Carolyn to a spaghetti eating contest (no hands of course)

 She won! But carolyn put up a good fight!

 Talent Show is tonight, so she's saving her voice!

 We also had Chloe's cupcakes come to camp for the second year in a row. The kids and companions can decorate their own cupcakes with all kinds of goodies, YUMMY!

And of course a little morning archery!

Happy Thursday is right; I can't believe we are only here one more night. We get into a routinue and love every minute of it, it's weird to think this year is almost over!

christmas wednesday!

 Wednesday was Christmas! It was a very fun and wet day, but we had a silver lining for dinner; Wicks Pizza! They braved the weather and brought us all pizza from Louisville and it was good! We are so thankful for wick's every year!!

 During dinner we had a special guest surprise us... SANTA! We brought all the campers a few little goodies and even better he brought a smile to their faces : )

After Santa and dinner festivities, we settled for an indoor bonfire..without a fire. We sangs songs as usual and had an ice cream social!

Land Rovers

 Land Rovers are a favorite part of camp for a lot of campers. We didn't have the best weather for it this year, it was a little muddy but most of the kids got to go for rides, but not everyone...

 Rick is his name I believe, and he has been coming with Rover for a couple years now and is such a sweet heart. We had someone who REALLY wanted to go on the land rovers, but had to miss out because of the weather rolling in. But he came over to talk to her and tried to hold out for the weather..

16 Bowling

Wednesday morning the 16 years old's (graduating campers) got to go bowling! We headed out on the school bus to do some bowling and lunch!

P.S
Our staff is great, they go through so much to let us do all the things we do at camp and even if we have some nappers on the bus; they all still have a blast.

Camp Fire and Camp Out

Camp fire came to fast like they all do; snack cart came meds were given for bedtime and songs were sang off key; but we love every second of it!

After camp fire, the 15 and 16 year old's headed down to the tee-pees for a camp out.
Heather is a genius for thinking of this; these camp outs with the older kids are so much fun. We played catch phrase, headband game, told (un)scary stories and laughed until our stomachs hurt!

 Nurse Moe had a little trouble finding her sweet spot for sleeping...

A little blurry but still so much fun.

25th Anniversary!

After all of our activities had settled down and we rinsed the pie from our hair, it was time for some our special guests and dinner! Some may know that this is our 25th year of Camp Quality KY!! I cannot even put into words how special this camp is to me and my family, this is my 5th year as a companion and I love it more and more everyday.

 Some old friends; Eric a past director! We were also lucky enough to meet come CQ national board members!

 Dr. Bertelone from Kosair childrens hospital; he knows a lot of the kids and the kids called him Dr. Bologna : ) It was very nice of him to stop by!

 Nurse Nancy... oh Nurse Nancy. Nancy has been here since the beginning of CQ KY 25 years ago. She does so much and has so much love in her heart for every single person here at camp. She made a little speech, and he had an original Camper (Timmy) stop by and sing for us.
After she finished up, a few past campers now companions came up to say a few words (Angelina, Eddie, Jamie and Seth) and it was so nice of them so share their memories and stories of Nancy with everyone.

And of course we had some of last years camper graduates stop by : )

It was a beautiful day, full of beautiful people!

Tuesday Activities

I may have mentioned we played a little BINGO and the YMCA came and helped out in the morning which was a lot of fun!
Then we went to lunch and after that we had
some afternoon activities; Swimming, Archery, Zip lining,  Arts and Crafts (etc.) the kids in the activity sessions can choose what they want to do during this time and rotate through out the week to get to everything!
