Science Camp 2015
I went to Science Camp This Summer! It was fun. It was at my friend Zachary's house.
On space day, we watched a video on how astronauts eat their lunch. For snack time, we made astronaut pudding and ate astronaut ice cream. We also learned the names of the planets in order.
On lego day, we did an experiment with a frozen lego guy.We tried to see what thing would melt the ice quicker. We used salt, a lobster pic, a coffee mug filled with room temperature water, and a squeeze bottle filled with cold water. The squeeze bottle worked the best.
On rock and roll day, we made rocks out of food. Afterwards, we got to eat the rocks. We also learned the three types of rocks: Metamorphic, Igneous, and Sedimentary.
On energy day, we made solar ovens out of a pizza box. We made it by putting tinfoil on the lid and
black paper on the bottom. We cooked pizza with it. We also made wind powered cars with a sail.
Summary:
I thought it was fun! My favorite part was unfreezing the lego guy.

Sailing Camp 2015
I went to sailing camp this summer! It was really fun! It was at Spot Pond. I went with my friend Eric. I met a new friend, Tanner. The counselors were very nice. Their names were Josh, Nik, Jess, Carolyn, Cam, and Chris. I learned to tie knots, like the Bowline and Slip Knot. I also learned Boat Positions and how to steer and rig the boat. I also learned how to tack and jibe.
Before we would go sailing, we would play a game, such as Scramble. You would toss a ball in the air, and wait until it bounces three times. Then you could catch the ball. If you throw the ball at somebody, they're out.
There was also board and card games, such as Uno, Connect 4, Spit, and Mancala.
I also went kayaking. During that, we did a T-rescue. It's when someone falls out of their Kayak, and someone tries to help. The person who did NOT fall out of their boat pulls the other boat beside theirs. Then, the other person climbs into THEIR Kayak. We also played games, like Get the paddle. You played by throwing your paddle into the water, and trying to get it.
On the last day, they let us sail without a counselor!

Fourth of July Pool Party
Hi! Dominik here. I had a pool party for the Fourth of July!This picture shows my friends that were at the party
There's James, Mason, Me, Zack, and Zachary. Dimitri also had his friends over, too.
We could play with Bocce Balls, Badminton, Ping pong, Basketball, and other games. I chose to play Badminton and tag. Then, we had hot dogs for dinner.
After we had dinner, we roasted marshmallows and made s'mores. Then, we used sparklers and played tag. After that, we went inside and watched a movie.My favorite part of the party was when we got to play tag. I had a BLAST!!!
