Encampment- Hippie Camp 2010

Not to tired from our Disney trip which we just came back on Monday we headed out on Friday to Shadow Rim for the Hippie Camp 2010 Two Rivers Encampment.  We stopped in Payson for dinner at McDonalds.  We ended up at camp around 8:30 where we checked into our cabins in the Settlers.  We had three Cabins with the younger girls in one cabin and the older girls in the other.  The girls unloaded and played in their cabins till late at night. 

Sat we woke up and headed to the special 9-11 flag raising ceremony.  Which was really nice.  The girls had pancakes for breakfast then headed for their first session: Solar Oven Making.  They made solar ovens from pizza boxes and made mini pizzas from english muffins.  The second session the girls did splatter painting.  They were given bandana's and they sprayed them with different colors.  For their 3rd session they went canoeing.  No one swamped their canoe but they had fun paddling around the pake.  Time for lunch so the girls headed to the lodge for sub sandwiches.  After lunch the girls got to take a break and make some pet rocks and take a break back at their cabins (some headed to the creek for a creek walk).  Then the girls headed over to make walking sticks where they got to burn designs into their walking sticks.  After a quick snack they headed over to do their last session and made tie dyed shirts.  Then it was time for a scavenger hunt and then a speggetti dinner.  Afterwards some of the girls were tired and wanted to go back to their cabins while some went to roast marshmellows at a campfire. 

Totally exhausted their girls woke up early to pack and load and clean camp.   Then it was time to say goodbye and head home.  After a quick stop at McDonalds for an ice cream break we headed home.
