Medieval Weekend
August 4, 2008 6:46 pm Camp Activities, Camp NewsMaxwell here!
reporting on Medieval Weekend. There were lots of crazy rainstorms, but we were able to go on with our Medieval games as promised!
Jousting . . .
Defending . . .
Saving princesses in distress
and much more!!
Later that afternoon, after the horseshoe tournament, hat and shield forging
and the porridge eating contest, The White and Black Knights battled for the honor of being king!
It was a long and terrible battle, with one crowd cheering for the noble white knight and the other crowd cheering for the courageous black knight! After much clashing and clanging and tumbling, they settled their challenge by playing rock-paper-scissors. The white knight won and was crowned king. The crowd went wild!! Then the kingdom was at peace once more
Later that night Marcus and Angelique performed some wizardry! It was so amazing, Tami forgot to take pictures!!! Alex did though, and she promised to give them to me if I was really good to the kids at face painting tomorrow. So come back on Wednesday to see some magical photos!
Last but not least, a big shout out to the Poland Players who performed Shakespeare’s Taming of a Shrew Sunday afternoon!
It’s being directed by Alex and they’re showing it in several places locally between now and
the end of August. They were awesome!
Good luck to you all! Break a leg!
