Campers started the morning with a delicious breakfast of French toast, sausage, and fresh strawberries before heading out for a full day of adventure and fun. At lunchtime, everyone enjoyed crispy chicken tenders and onion rings, giving campers plenty of energy for the exciting activities ahead.
As the afternoon turned into evening, campers participated in one of Camp Cheerio's favorite traditions—Thrive! Half of camp competed in the action-packed game while the other half enjoyed a variety of fun games and activities before switching places so everyone had a chance to experience both. Congratulations to the Red Team for earning the victory in an exciting competition filled with teamwork, strategy, and camp spirit!
Dinner brought everyone together to enjoy a hearty meal of penne pasta with tomato sauce and meatballs, dinner rolls, and Caesar salad—a perfect way to refuel after an energetic day.
The day concluded with one of the most meaningful traditions of the summer: Friendship Vespers. During this special gathering, our last-year campers shared heartfelt reflections about what Camp Cheerio has meant to them throughout the years. Their stories of friendship, growth, laughter, and unforgettable memories reminded us all of the lasting impact camp has on every camper. It was a touching evening filled with gratitude, encouragement, and the special bonds that make Camp Cheerio feel like home.
