Dear Warren,
Thank you for being a parent help at Spencer Beach Holiday Camp. It would not have been possible to do it without you. I hope you had as much fun as I did. It would be great if you could come again next year. It was also fantastic that you could took time off work to come on camp with us. The meals you made were 5 star. It was also great how you helped us with the scavenger hunt.
Here is a recount I wrote about my favourite moment from camp.
My favourite activity at Spencer Beach Holiday Park camp was Adrenalin Forest. Wow this is so big and look how high the thin wire is. As I got my harness I wondered how high the levels would be. I thought it would be a challenge because I had never done anything like this before. As I did the zipline practice I thought this was going to be epic.
The first challenging obstacle was the ziplines they were a bit hard to get on. Some were flat so for the last bit you had to move with your hands along the wire to the end. The best zip lines were the ones at the end of level 1 and 2. The second obstacle was the barrels that you had to go through. There were about 5 small barrels but the tricky bit was the gap between the barrels.
Another obstacle was the spider net where you had to swing using your legs and arms. You had to grab on and then climb off. It was quite important because if you did not grab on you will go back and get stuck. After the spider net I did the thin wire where you had to go across the thin wire and it had two wires to hold on too.
I would be very happy to do Adrenalin Forest again. I think everybody should give it a go. If you are scared of heights then just do level 1 and 2 because they only go to 4 meters.
Warren, thank you again for being a parent helper on our camp. You were the best camp group leader. I hope sleeping in the t.v. corner won’t make you not came on camp again. I really appreciate you coming on camp and I think you should come again next year because you were great. My favourite activity was Adrenalin Forest, what was your favourite activity that we did on camp?
Yours sincerely,
James
