Yesterday, it was a double whammy of two of the most heavy hitting activities at camp. As if snowboarding above the clouds all day wasn’t enough! In the afternoon, the girls relaxed with the Roxy arts and crafts activity…”Tees and Tepees”! They all created some very amazing desktop tepees. And everyone got a Roxy tee shirt for participating.

The group. Getting artsy.

We walked deep into the woods for this group photo.
After “Tees and Tepees”, the girls refueled with some awesome pizza from the kitchen. Then, they all participated in the Gnu “Let’s Make Magic” activity! If you haven’t been following the blog…well, you’ve been missing out. It’s alright though, because you will be filled in. The Gnu activity is an egg drop! Each team of three has to build something in which to keep their egg safe. Safe enough to be dropped from each level of Boardwalk! The teams that survived all three levels had to battle for the Gnu B Nice snowboard, by doing an egg toss. We finally narrowed down a winner. It was Sloane! A huge shout out to Olivia too!

Welp, here we are in session 4. The Gnu “Let’s Make Magic”, aka the egg drop was awesome. As usual. The girl campers never cease to amaze Gnu Girls Terri and Sandra! The girls all created such elaborate contraptions, if you will. Contraptions that kept many an egg safe as they were dropped from the sky. Check out the pictures:

Yup. The Gnu “let’s make magic” activity is an egg drop! Like last session, this session’s girls are proving to be one smart group of campers. The girls are grouped into teams of three and are given these items: 2 ballons, 5 marshmallows, construction paper, string, tape, and 5 straws. They then create some of the coolest contraptions we’ve ever seen, to protect one magical egg.

Then, very nervously, the egg-contraptions are dropped off the Boardwalk balconies. The first drop, off the second story, broke a couple eggs. The second drop, off the third story, broke a few more. Then only one egg survived the long drop from the fourth story!

Would your egg survive?
The winning team was so excited that their egg did not break! But, how to decide who gets the Gnu B-Nice snowboard? Like we always do in the snowboard world…ro sham bo!

Winning!

Session 2 has so many girls! And who knew that they are all future rocket scientists?

The Drop
This session’s Gnu Girls activity was a magical egg drop. Well, the eggs were not full of magic, but the girls made magical contraptions to keep their egg safe. This activity is definitely a throwback to elementary school. Except the winner received a Gnu snowboard, not just a gold star.

Making Magic
The girls were split into teams of three, to come up with a design out of the supplies they were given. (Construction paper, marshmallows, rubber bands, tape, and yarn). The goal was to keep their egg safe. Safe enough to withstand being dropped off the second, third, and fourth story of Boardwalk.

Keep Your Fingers Crossed!
Teams were eliminated as their egg broke. Only a few teams got out on the first drop. The second drop, off the third story, broke a lot of eggs. After the final drop, off the fourth story, the girls anxiously sprinted up the check on their eggs. Three teams were delighted to see that their egg withstood such a long fall onto asphalt! The judges, including Jamie Anderson, decided that there was only one way to designate a winner. Magical chairs. Or is it musical chairs? Either way, it was a little too intense to be pictured below. So here’s the winner with her brand new Gnu B-Nice! She’s going to have a blast on that board tomorrow!!

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!
