Untalent Show Fun

Today was full of excitement with a wide range of camptivities after a good morning of team building. The boys enjoyed fishing, pool, dam jumping, mud volleyball, and preparing for the Untalent Show! Campers are trying new activities and trying to create the full camp experience before heading back home! Tonight’s evening activity was Kupugani’s Untalent Show where campers showcased some of their strengths and skills to everyone. It ranged from an origami showcase to piano playing to breakdancing and singing. The Untalent Show is a great opportunity to see […]

Camptivities Galore!

After a morning of challenging team building activities, we had an afternoon of camptivities galore. We had tie-dye, cratestacking, and a full camp challenge hike! How exciting! The campers delighted in also having another full camp soccer game…not a clamored-for rematch between staff and campers, but two teams divided between all of camp! The boys continue to enjoy camp more than ever, even as they are challenged in teams and cabins to use good conflict resolution skills and use their resilience and empowerment skills. The camp rush is at an […]

We Love Olympics Day!

After a well-deserved sleep and energizing breakfast, our campers headed out to use teamwork skills like communication and trust to overcome obstacles! Later we all participated in mud tug-o-war, potato sack races, and dam jumping in honor of today being Olympics Day! We finished the day off with a whole camp game of sharks and minnows!

Teamwork Thursday!

This is the quote of the day, which we discuss every morning as an entire camp. With early morning Zumba classes and late afternoon canoeing, every girl is becoming more confident and empowered to try challenging activities and make new friends. Additionally, teams grew closer as we wrote and shared poems about our diverse backgrounds.

First Day Fun

Las Mujeres, go Las Mujeres! Today is the first day of teams, the ladies made team agreements and cheers! Later we went on a camp tour and had our first day of La Tienda (Aye, aye, aye!) Later we had show and tell, where the girls explained an object that represents their heritage. All of the campers come from different homes, and it was wonderful to see each one be empowered to tell her story tonight! 🙂

Beating the Heat at Camp on the 4th!

Another great day of empowerment. Cool team building initiatives in the morning. A 4th of July picnic complete with banana boats for dessert. Afternoon crate stacking, pool time, drama class, and untalent show practice, followed by more pool time to beat the heat! It was so nice and cool! A fabulous evening meal of corn bread, mac and cheese, and BBQ chicken sandwiches, then to wrap up a fun-filled Fourth, we had the un-talent show and dance…a great end to another great day!

Night Under the Stars

Some refreshing morning clouds came through, helping to cool things off a bit, before powering up again for a warm afternoon of fun! We kicked today off with some team building activities, with the afternoon bringing camptivities such as hiking, canoeing, pool, Zumba, and giant-Jenga! The evening activity included a spirited game of Rainbow Tag.Tonight is also NUTS (Night Under the Stars) and it will be nice to have a one-on-one with nature. It’s certainly not boring here at Camp Kupugani, where the girls continue to be empowered!

Scintillating Saturday

Another amazing day at camp, filled with some awesome activities! Morning teams included lifts and lap sits, as well as talking about being PHENOMENAL WOMEN. We had great fun with camptivities, starting out with the annual camper-staff soccer game…resulting in an epic last-minute comeback by the campers to tie the game. The tour of the old schoolhouse this morning was also a success. After an evening of Game-boree, we ended the night with a campfire that focused on empathy 🙂 Another great day spent with empowered young ladies!

Fantastic Friday – July 26, 2019

Blue skies and a fresh breeze, after some welcomed cooling rain today. After waking up to this morning, we loved the breakfast including sausages and French Toast and juice. Energized for the day, the campers moved on to their team activities on a day focusing on positive self-image (and no mirrors!). The LITs visited some seniors at a local senior center with the seniors enjoying the girls’ conversations and songs! This afternoon had camptivities including pool, crate stacking, aerobics, mud volleyball, and shrinky dinks in arts and crafts! Another great […]
