Clubs is an activity period that is different from all others. It takes place during the early evening, lasting about an hour and fifteen minutes.. It allows different age groups to intermingle. Also, an interesting variety of activities are offered. Monday's clubs list had a lot of cool activities in store for campers.
  Right after dinner, campers gathered in the bowl, only to soon be dispersed within their separate clubs.
Tom lead a nature walk through the Blair backcountry.  Lots of flora and fauna were spotted, along with several deer!
Some crucial games of the soccer tournament were played.
 
Campers shot around and played knock out in basketball.
 
  Yoga instructors Nicole, Rose, and Adele had no campers show up for their club, but they still did yoga anyways!
During evening shade, campers enjoyed lounging in the bowl, doing anything from playing cards or just talking.
   
 For part of this week's magic festivities, a game of Qudditch, from the popular series of novels, Harry Potter, was played.
A Harry Potter trivia game also went along with the magic week festivities.
This Thursday, the camp will play host to a dance/gymnastics/drums show. During clubs, some campers practiced for the salsa dance portion of the show.
 
To continue with the magic theme, magic hats were made in arts & crafts.
Missing in action were the M.O.B (Meeting of Bookworms) and Comic Strip/Sundial, who usually meet by the waterfall and in Annie Hall respectively.  Wherever they were, an awesome time was had by all!
All I found by the waterfall was a cat.  
  All in all, clubs is a time where campers can relax and reflect on the day that is almost over by playing an unstructured sport or laying in the bowl. It sure is a great way to end a full day of activities.
