Every morning after breakfast, our campers start their day off with Team Competition, AKA “Team Comp”. This friendly competition includes games like kickball, mini soccer, O-Ball, Nuke Em, and Steal the Bacon. The winners of each game earn their respective teams (Rough Riders and Silver Spurs vs. Texas Rangers and Lone Stars) points toward a head start for our highly anticipated Amazing Race at the end of the term.
Our current team competition score is:
Texas Rangers and Lonestars: 8
Rough Riders and Silver Spurs: 17
And the Rough Riders and Silver Spurs continue to advance their lead.
Funny things campers say… Recently at the barn, campers were playing a game of horse trivia to learn fun facts about horses. One of the questions was “What does a red ribbon in a horse’s tail mean?” They were unsure so I gave them a hint. I said “It is something dangerous.” One of the girls raised her hand and said “Is it boys?” We got a good chuckle out of that one. The correct answer is: the horse kicks.

A Greek island dream where Olympus meets ABBA and legends stroll cobblestone streets! Think Aphrodite by the sea, Hercules on holiday, or a full Mamma Mia moment in breezy whites, blues, sparkles, and gold accessories. No matter whether campers came as Greek gods, mythical creatures, or chic island vacationers, we all danced under the Santorini Sunset! Santorini Soiree was undoubtedly a night to never forget here at CBS.
Set at the Grassy Knoll right gridiron, campers arrived to the dance as the sun cast pink and golden hues across the Santorini set. String lights hung overhead alongside disco balls and hanging ribbons of ocean blues. At the edge of the gridiron, a large banner flanked by swooping Mediterranean blue drapery set the backdrop for the night. To the side of the dance, our Santorini cityscape sat, complete with white washed buildings, cerulean blue domed roofs and windows, and Bougainvillea flowers clinging to the structure.
Campers enjoyed grecian orange cake, a build your own evil eye cookie station, mediterranean sea jello, and fresh pita with hummus. They practiced their Apollo-like archery skills with plastic bows, painted paper fans, and jousted on a large inflatable jousting ring. And of course, they danced the night away ABBA style.
As the dance came to a close, campers were directed to head to the soccer field and take a seat on the bleachers. A surprise show was in order! Put on by our full-time and leadership team, the campers watched a 7 minute musical medley complete with costumes, spotlights, and choreography to classic Hercules and Mamma Mia scenes. And to top off the night, as the cast took their final bow, fireworks exploded overhead. What a night!
