The Sesame Street theme will focus on our strong sense of family and working together to help others be the best that we can be.Īfter our traditional opening ceremonies, the fields were alive all afternoon and the beginning rehearsals of what is sure to be a beautiful Color War sing could be heard from the social hall. The Storybook theme will focus on how we create our stories at camp through kindness, friendship, and the magic that can only be found at Blue Ridge. Now, we are deep into competition between the Blue Storybook, Led by counselor chief Lauren Lazarus, and the Grey Sesame Street, led by counselor chief Sophie Foster. However, instead of her voice, the first blast of the cannon was heard…then the second…then the third, signaling the official start of Color War along with papers flying through the air. Of course, the interviews wouldn’t have been complete without a traditional Camp Cast ending- “Back to you Lori!” Julie and Sheryl said that together, and silence hung in the air as we waited for Lori’s dismissal. Julie and Sheryl stood in the front of the mess hall with the camera on them.

It was decided that we would see their interviews live in the morning.Īs soon as reveille blew this morning, campers could be found on bunk porches waiting for the next sign of Color War.

The interviewees also gave their predictions of when the war would break- some even said they thought that it would break that very minute, stimulating a huge reaction from the crowd. The end of the camp cast was interrupted by a “special report-“ video interviews with all of the groupheads, Lizzy, Nicki, and Lori recalling their memories of past Color Wars and advice for the PC’s about what was to come. ![]() We had our CBR dance showcase, followed by our weekly camp cast.
