Wow what a day! Today after a scrumididdlyumtious breakfast, the kids headed over to CE (creative expression) to write poems and reflect on yesterday's performance of the Wedding Singer. In some classes, the campers even got to act out the parts of the show! The kids were so excited about CE today, and they were talking about it all throughout the day. Then, we all went over to workshops and worked on improv, self-portraits, and routines. We sure are a talented bunch of kids! For lunch today, we had chicken tacos, salads, self-made sandwiches, and OF COURSE our favorite ice cream cones!! Mmm yummy.
Then... for the highlight of the day that everyone was looking forward to: Pageant of the Masters!!!! When we first got to Laguna, we went on a tour of the theater, and we checked out the sets, lighting, costumes, makeup, and wardrobe! It was such a unique experience! Then we decorated ceramic pots and worked on scratch art and printmaking. The kids and staff all get to keep their pieces of art! Later, we walked all around the art festival and looked at all of the pieces, and thought of questions that we would go ask the artists later in the evening when we got the chance. After about an hour, we left the Pageant area temporarily so we could go to Heisler Park. It was beautiful! We were at a big grassy area overlooking the ocean. It was so peaceful and relaxing! The kids prepped for the talent show in their groups and everyone is starting to get verrryyy excited. Some people are taking big risks and doing things for the show they never even knew they were capable of! Whoppee!! For dinner we had a delicious pizza party, thanks to Dominos! Then, before we knew it, the St. Clair family was there! Carl St. Clair came and did excercises with the kids, teaching everyone the difference between listening versus hearing, and looking versus seeing. It was perfect for preparing us for Pageant of the Masters! When we got back to the theater, we sat in our seats and the show began! The "Only Make Believe" theme of the show was so well presented! The section with the dragons seemed to be very popular with EVERYONE!
