Sugar Bay and the Minions!

Legendary! There is no other word I could use to describe this week at the bay! If you have not seen the movie Despicable Me, none of what I am about to tell you is going to make any sense. For those of you who loves this movie as much as I do, you can only imagine what a magical week we have had here at Sugar Bay.



Monday
From the very first day the theme was here to stay. Counsellors were dressed up head to toe in yellow and purple just like our favourite little minions. BBM, Hakka and Marvel dressed up as our Margo, Edith and Agnes. There was yellow and blue everywhere we looked, from the material to the balloons, and even the punch!


The first night started off with a bang where campers got to learn how to speak Minionese, and at this rate they are going to be fluent by the time they leave. Campers also learnt an awesome Flash Mob routine to the "Happy Song", and every time it played throughout this week they were on their feet rocking some crazy dance moves!



All the evening programs were minion related. The first night was "Who wants to be a Minionaire", where campers had to answer questions about the movie in order to win points for their team. One thing I forgot to mention is that campers have been split into two teams! The Purple and Yellow team (which represents the two types of minions). Throughout the week they will be able to win points towards the huge "all camp game" on Sunday.


Wednesday
Next up we had "Whose Minion is it anyway?", in which campers had a good laugh watching our famous counsellors up on stage! They even had a guest star, the big man himself, Tape join them for a night full of laughs. The campers that were brave enough also had the chance to go up and perform with our stars.




Thursday
Yesterday, had to be my favourite day for this entire week! Campers had the choice to participate in one of two things. For those who were lucky enough to go on the excursion, they headed off to Mini Town and Fun World on the Durban beach front.  There they did things like bumper cars and the swings to name a few, and they then finished off the day with yummy Mc Donald’s!


For our other campers that were lucky enough to stay here they got to have Ski Day! The wake snake was out on the Sugar Bay lagoon and boy did the campers have fun. They then enjoyed homemade Sugar Bay pizza for lunch, and then had a pool party in the afternoon with the pool trampoline out and in action!



Thursday night we had a spectacular carnival in the hall. We had it all, from the mechanical surfboard, sumo wrestling, cup pong, human foose ball and for those who were brave - the haunted house. Trust me it was only for the brave at heart. We also had a yummy food station where campers got to make their own burgers with their choice of toppings.



Coming up this weekend
The awesome thing about this week is that so much has happened, but there is still so much more to come! This morning I had an awesome early morning Yoga class with Alaska where we showed all the campers our moves! What a beautiful way to start the day!

I am excited to see which team wins our all camp waterballoon fight on Saturday! I am also looking forwad to the magical final camp fire, I definitely think there are going to be lots of tears shed. But for now, I am going to pick out my yellow or blue outfit for party night tonight and dance the night away.

If you were not here this week you have definitely missed out on some special memories, but never fear we have two more holiday camps coming up this April. In my next blog you will hear all about what to expect and you never know, maybe you'll be in my next post!
