Clearing

After the tasty lunch and the afternoon snack everybody was busy clearing the classrooms and the staff room.
Our mighty counselors - Tseren and Igor - had to carry heavy things downstairs at school and then again upstairs back at university!

Closing Ceremony: Counselors

Our counselors were dancing and the audience was following with admiration and cheers.

Closing Ceremony: South

Cotton Kids showed two videos and one sketch "Let's Get Married".

One video used the stylistics of the famous "Star Wars" and introduced the epic power of the White Team. The campers saw one day of the Summer Camp life in the second video.

The sketch demonstrated various talents of their campers.

One of the touching moments: Happy Birthday, Erdem K.!

Closing Ceremony: Middle Atlantic

The 3Gs sang and danced. I liked their enthusiasm.

Closing Ceremony: West

The campers appeared as reperesentatives from different parts of The West. Everybody greeted the girls from the Hawaii and from Alaska.
The Reds have been one of the most dancing and singing teams.

Closing Ceremony: Midwest Team

The Blue Team opened the Closing Ceremony. The team prepared a sketch. The campers showed their view on some lessons of White, Grey and Yellow teachers. They also touched upon their teamtime.

Brain Ring

Today this is our second activity! The counselors were responsible for this event. There were four levels, as they defined them.

Classy Counselors

Our counselors have always invented something unusual. Look at their labels 'Free Hugs'! Just for fun!

Water Fun

The long-awaited activity at last! Water throwing on a hot day is a real fun!

But before the fun the campers were reminded to follow certain rules:

Go through the escape entrance!
Don't block the main entrance!
Wipe dry the floor after the activity!

FLEX Present their USA

FLEX counselors - Nastya Ts., Tanya M. and Anya O. - told the campers about their host families, schools, travelling, etc.

First Mr and Miss Narn Sun

Never before there has been such an event: choosing Mr and Miss Summer Camp!


Each team did a great job. The contestants were supported by their teams. Everybody took part in the competition that could be compared to the concert.

During the first round the contestants danced, recited, sang. They are so talented!

The second round turned out rather difficult: the would-to-be Mr or Miss Camp was to mime the quotation of the day and the Mr or Miss was to guess.

The third prize went to Dayana and Ayuka from the "Red Team".
The second prize went to Ayush and lera from "Cotton Kids" "White Team'.
The winners are the contestants from the Honey Bees "Yellow Team". They are Lyuba and Vitaliy!

Sports Day: Dodgeball

Our campers call this game as "Snipers". Actually, it's a variation of dodgeball. Players try to hit other players with balls and avoid being hit.

The counselors prepared tasty prizes.

• The 1st prize goes to "New England" (The Yellow Team").
• The 2nd prize goes to "The South" ("The White Team").
• The 3rd prize goes to "The Middle Atlantic " ("The Grey Team").

Closer to Campers: Counselors

While the campers were playing, the counselors were discussing tomorrow's activities.

Counselors' Meeting

The counselors and the coordinator are discussing tomorrow's activity. The meeting takes place in the Staffroom.

Gender Bender Day

The first activity offered during the election campaign and supported at the first meeting of the Summer Camp Congress: the girls were wearing boys' clothes and the boys tried to wear the girls' clothes, just a little bit. The girls are very artistic, unlike the confused boys.


Choose the best!

• Altana (South "White Team").
• Erdni (Middle Atlantic "Grey Team")
• Galina as Private Jane (New England "Yellow Team")
• Guilyana ( Middle Atlantic "Grey Team")
• Zula (Midwest "Blue Team").

Alyson's Lesson

The campers listened to Michael Jackson's song "Black or White". Counselor Tseren helped the kids understand the ideas of this famous song.

Water Spraying

One of the most favourite activities - water spraying - was full of fun and screams!

The Summer Camp President appeared well-prepared and started the fun.

Saturday: No Lessons

The campers played various games. I learnt some of the names: "Hot Potato" (Ball), "Slap" (?!)...
