Play Day with Camp Alleghany

Saturday night was Play Day.  More than 100 girls arrived before dinner to join our Senior Camp boys for and evening of food, fun, and nervousness.  After dining, everyone gathered in the Play Hall for a great dance with our own DJ’s.  As anxious as the campers are in the beginning, the end of the dance is always bittersweet.

 

 

Sunday Night Campfire

Sunday evening is the time for campfire.  Boys can tell jokes, perform in a skit, sing a song, or display their talents.  The show always ends with the telling of a Woofus story.

Dancin’ and Movin’ and Groovin’ to the Music

Once again the Intermediates and Seniors from Camp Greenbrier traveled afar to meet the Camp Alleghany girls.   After a delicious meal and vigorous welcome songs from the Ghany campers, all the campers, boys and girls, headed to Alleghany’s Play Hall to sing, jump, dance, shout and get to know one another.  The music was loud and spirits ran high; a perfect evening for all!
