Summer Camp Leysin, Switzerland
The First Day of Leysin Summer Camp 2011
Today marks the beginning of the 40th annual Village Camps Summer! With the sun beating down, 160 seven to seventeen-year-olds from over 20 countries have been making their way here to Leysin, Switzerland to begin their two week adventure. The first port of call was to present themselves to reception, then off to deposit their money with the bank, check in with the medical team, meet their colour group leaders and sign up to the activities of the day. The long-running brunch fuelled them for an afternoon of getting to know each other by making name tags and door signs for their rooms and playing boardgames and ballgames. Some even took the opportunity to try out VC's brand new outdoor climbing wall. The buzzing throng was then divided into counsellor groups to focus the bonding and pass on information about their stay here. Name games and icebreakers (such as Ninja, which you'll soon be playing at home!) were followed by dinner, a tour of the building and more games. Finally, after a long day of travelling for most, bed was a welcome sight!
