Constantia Park hits Sugar Bay by storm

On Monday afternoon Sugar Bay was flooded with campers from Constantia Park. They traveled all the way from Pretoria to come and see what all their previous class mates had told them. The beach, the activities and to meet these crazy people with funny names they had heard so much about.

Let me tell you, I love having 200+ campers at camp. From an outsider looking in, it must definitely look crazy, but as a counselor, it's a dream come true. Two hundred brand new faces that are going to change your life in just five days, and become another beautiful memory.

The campers from Constantia definitely brought their energy to camp from the very first day. We divided the group into three sections and were running beach, land and adventure activities every day of the week. There were campers everywhere!

Unfortunately, the weather was not on our side this week, with overcast clouds and a sprinkle of rain every now and then. However, this never stopped these tough campers from Constantia! They loved the beach so much that throughout the week you would find campers kayaking on the lagoon in the drizzle, or splashing in the waves at the beach.

Not only did the campers enjoy our activities, but they had an epic time at night during the evening programs. They completed fun tasks during Minute to Win It, conquered fears during Fear Factor and ran around in funky outfits during the Dutch Auction. Finally, we had to end off the week with a huge party night where all 206 campers partied the night away in the party room!

It's going to take 5 buses, 5 driver's, 8 Teachers and 10 hours to get 206 campers back to Pretoria after an epic week at Sugar Bay! Boy, are we going to miss all the happy campers from Constantia Park!
