Camp Marimeta enjoys sunny skies!

Another wonderful week has been completed on the gorgeous grounds of Camp Marimeta. As a result of good weather, we have been enjoying the majority of our meals outside at tables of mixed ages. We were thrilled to receive the news that all COVID tests were negative! Consequently, this allows us to loosen our restrictions to have girls of all ages eating together, expanding “pods” to age groups, and ditching masks while outdoors.

Mari-Meta League teams were picked and announced at the all camp Water Balloon Hunt. We all had so much fun as the team captains were rewarded with their titles. We had little rain on Monday which allowed us to all participate in Project Runway Marimeta Style with recycled goods! Tough interview questioning was provided by our new associate director Nick Kasle including, “If a wood chuck could chuck wood, would it? Please elaborate on your answer”!  Most importanly, our Marimeta models handled the questions beautifully and represented their teams well.

First thing on Tuesday morning we had our portraits and cabin pictures taken for the photo album that will be released following camp. Our ladies looked lovely! Secondly, due to the inclement weather, we played an activity called Get Stuff, Do Stuff and Find Stuff Out. It is a treasure hunt type of activity. Lastly, to round out the day, we played Scattergories in the evening.

Wednesday was a gorgeous day where we were all out at our regularly scheduled activities. The evening was our first Mari-Meta League Team Competition. Who do you think is going to win the first ever Senior Cabin 2020 versus Senior Cabin 2021 Marimeta League?

During Thursday and Friday we had great regular activity days with nice weather. Everyone loves it when it’s sunny outside. After Thursdays fun filled day we decided to watch a movie to rest our tired bodies.

Additionally we had so much fun on Friday night!  It was the annual Mari-Meta T-shirt relay followed by everyone’s favorite evening activity….CAPTURE THE FLAG!  The girls were amazing and the spirit was super!

Saturday was a hot day filled with waterfront activities. After lunch, we had an all camp General Waterfront to cool off in Meta lake. This was followed by a full evening including the Trunk Game, MTV practice, and our 5 year campfire! Additionally, s’mores were enjoyed by our new 5 year campers!

Of course we cannot have a blog without talking about Marimeta meals!  Grecian chicken, burgers on the grill, tacos, fried shrimp,  dirkee chicken, sub sandwiches, chicken patties, BLT’s, chicken and beef kabobs, firecracker salmon and turkey and gravy were all on the menu this week!

We hope you have amazing 4th of July. Enjoy the weather and we hope you have an fantastic week.

Always with Kindness,

The Lodgies
