Camp Craft
Here is a fun project for a winter afternoon. It may be a little hard to find down wood unless a tree came down in a more recent storm. Be certain the wood you choose is not rotten or punky you don't want your chair to disintegrate while you are sitting on it. A set of these around a bonfire would make a fun place for a family night of stories under the stars. Don't forget to get your graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate for the bonfire! S'more fun would be great for a birthday celebration!
Dressed for the weather this can even be fun while the snow is on the ground. Take fire precautions and stay away from buildings, use dry wood, have a bucket of water nearby. If you want something more filling try roasting hot dogs on the long sticks over the fire or be creative with chunks of beef and chicken precook and just heat them up. You could always fire up the gas grill.....if you can find it.
See who can tell the best story from camp. Who can tell a Whopper, a tall tale that is a stretch of the truth but almost believable. Who has the oldest memory from Holiday Hill Day Camp? Does anyone at your campfire remember the days of Horses and Rifle Range? As you share all these fun memories of swim lessons and paddles in Mansfield Hollow, of crafts and a day on the ropes course plan to be a part of all that again in 2011. http://www.holidayrecreation.com/
