Short devotional Jeroicef, non-sectarian, are held at Camp. Catholic camper! are taken to Hender- Jonville Sunday morning for Marr, accompanied by a member of the ftaff. l Activity Arrowhead desires that each camper get the most in enjoyment and instruction in his favorite activiites. Some organizations schedule the major part of the camper's time and activities, others, little if any. Arrowhead's course is in between, believing that some scheduling of instruction periods and regular follow up is desirable, if balanced with a gener- ous amount of free time for the camper. Each week day morning is divided into three activity instruction periods. You select your own activities, and then we set up your schedule, fitting you into groups of proper age, size and ability levels. No matter what your size and age, you may be an advanced swimmer, beginning rider, or vice versa. As indicated on the application, a camper chooses six activities, and each comes up every other morning, or three times a week. You too should have six activities for the mornings, unless you wish to double up on one or two Cexcept ridingj. That is all right, with parental approval, just so long as your mornings are planned intelligently and purposefully. There are of course exceptions to any morning schedule. Wle go on many camping trips, and on such occa- sions your schedule is set aside, to be resumed when you return to camp. This also applies when you are on a canoe trip or are at Lake Summit for sailing, aqua-planing and skiing. You may wish to shift from one activity to another occasionally. All right, if the change is reasonable and not too frequent. You should not, however, request to substitute another sport for, letls say swimming, if your parents have especially requested that you learn to sxvim. But you do not have to hang on to archery, for instance, all season just because you signed up for it, if you find that you would rather take up soft ball or something else. The whole'plan is for you to participate and receive regular instruction so Schedule that you will derive the keenest enjoyment from your sports by increasing your skill. It is not intended to tie you down to a daily routine. The afternoons are not scheduled, but are devoted to supervised free time. The activity centers are in operation, under counselor supervision, and you may have many choices of things to do every afternoon. VVe would like for you to experiment and to broaden your interests and skills. If you are a tennis bug and had tennis in the morning, you may play some more in the afternoon. Gr you may hike and explore with your gang, or sleep or pick blackberries for a pie, or write to your parents and girls. Vile want you to have a good time, to have time for accomplishing definite objec- tives, and time to devote to your pet schemes and hobbies, and time to relax and enjoy life. However, free time does not mean spending every afternoon doing nothing. Campers or parents who have questions in this respect should take it up with the camp director on an individual basis. There are many important events which take place during camp, not appearing on the activity check list and which will not be worked into your morning schedule sheet. These include the camping trips to Pisgah and other outpost spots, the canoe trips to Summit where you sail and ski, the county fair, minstrel, circus, and square dances with Glen Arden, the movies at camp once a week, council fires and all sorts of interesting evening programs, group games, birthday parties, hay rides, and treasure hunts. All these are planned on an informal basis with you and your varying interests in mind, and each of you is urged to join in the fun. Vile encourage campers to want to get somewhere, and in so doing have the most fun along the way. Look over the activity check list on the application blank. Check the 6 you prefer for a starter remembering that you may change later on as the situation merits.
