RISE AND SHINE, CAMPERS!

It’s day three of camp, and you are all rocking it! Make sure to wear your sunscreen, hang up your towel to dry, and reach out to us on twitter with any lost & found items you find.

Letters From Camp

Each day of camp, I’ll be challenging you to write a letter to do some good in the world. This can be as small or as big as you make it, but I encourage you to push yourself! Today’s challenge is: write to someone going through a hard time. We’ve all been there. Today write a letter to someone who needs some words of encouragement. This could be someone you know personally, or through an organization that sends letters to people battling various illnesses. Share how you are completing this prompt using the #iggppcamp hashtag on Twitter or Instagram. I’d love to see how you go do good!

Activity Time!

Our camp twitter will be super busy today! Start the day off with some yoga followed by our weekly #IggleChat. Not only can you find our annual Geeky Rebus happening today at 9p GMT, we’ve also got TWO Mega Video Gaming Sessions happening at 4p GMT and 12a GMT (overnight that is). If that’s not enough gaming for you, we’ll have some additional Cards Against Humanity bouts and a tabletop gaming themed scavenger hunt for anyone who misses out.

And in the Arts & Crafts shed, Zoe is teaching us Mini Zine Making! What a great way to store all your camp memories!

In the mood for more s’mores? Check out this S’mores Bark recipe from Jen!

Camp Chatter

Tonight’s the night! It’s our annual Blanket Fort & Wine Night

Report from the 1st Aid Cabin

Here’s your prescription for s’mores ice cream sandwiches. If today is the anniversary of your existence, come be celebrated at the 96 Hour Birthday Bash. Please report @iggppcampnurse immediately if you find you find yourself infested with nargles. Don’t forget to check out all the other fun stuff (like puppies and scavenger hunts!) happening at the First Aid Cabin!

Still craving more? Check out the full camp schedule for all the details and to see what’s coming up later this week!

Turtle Time!

What does your cabin have planned for today? Are you Troop Schuyler, Troop Guardian, or Troop Lux?

Mrs Schuyler-Hamilton cordially invites you all to a cocktail party this evening at 9pm UTC / 4pm CDT.

Crafts and Foods are ruling Troop Lux cabin. Don’t miss the glue, or the eggs. Are you going to finish everything in time?

We’ve got some swaps opening up for Troop Guardian – be sure to sign up for troop zines and the troop postcard swap! We also have an out-of-this-world DIY project! Groovy!

Hey all you beach bums!

Don’t forget about our Cabin Challenge Competition! You can check in on twitter to see how your troop is doing!

This year we are adding a little more fun to our Troops by creating a little friendly competition! There are a ton of activities for you to get involved in with camp, and if you are part of a Troop, be SURE to use your TROOP HASHTAG for them so we can keep track of who’s doing what!

Activities worth points include but are not limited to:

  • Participating in the Great Closet Cosplay Challenge
  • S’mores creation (photos or it didn’t happen!)
  • Performing an act of charity/random act of kindness
  • Post photo of a completed (or attempted) IGGPPCamp craft/recipe
  • Respond to the daily Letters From Camp challenge

Each activity is worth a different number of points….but part of the surprise is that we won’t tell you exactly how much they are worth! It will be a surprise at the end of camp– and earn your Troop bragging rights for the ENTIRE YEAR (plus a fun digital badge that you can download)!

Not in a Troop? That’s okay! We still want you to participate! If you want to adopt a Troop you can, OR you can participate with just #IGGPPCamp and see if non-Troop campers can beat the Troops at the game!

AS OF TODAY, Troop Guardian has pulled into the lead! Schuyler and Lux are not far behind, and it’s still any Troop’s cup to win! 

MUCH LOVE FROM YOUR CAMP DIRECTORS,
