Term 2: Men's & Women's Dinner + Cook-Out!

The first week of Term 2 concluded with some of our tried and true camp traditions! Thursday night at Camp Balcones Springs, we hosted our highly sought-after Women’s Dinner, a night of delicious food – like sauteed shrimp, pot stickers, and made-to-order gourmet pizza – dancing and singing, a sunset movie, and an inspirational and empowering talk from our Girls Camp Director.

While girl campers were enjoying tasty food at their larger-than-life slumber party, Boys Camp roasted hot dogs on Balcones Beach, swam in Lake Ted, and had a chili cook-off to celebrate Boys’ Cook-out.

On Friday, the boys and girls swapped places, as girl campers took to Balcones Beach to enjoy grilled hot dogs, pita pizzas, and S’mores, and participate in a chili cook-off of their own.

Back at our Rio Grande Dining Hall, boy campers devoured ribs, baked chicken, and delicious bread. After dinner, they had an epic food fight with cabbage and lettuce and then played a capture the flag game before winding down with showers, pajamas, and a movie – a fantastic slumber party of their own.
