Viola Camp 2011 - Monday & Tuesday

Our first full day of Viola Camp (Monday) was full of delightfulness. We got up bright and early and, after a breakfast of cereal, we all piled into our respective vehicles and headed over to the church. We had a full day of viola playing, including large ensemble (everyone together), smaller ensembles, and even smaller ensembles, as well as individual practice. Renaud led us in a session of pilates/yoga exercises to get in tune with our spines. Back at camp, we had a yummy dinner of hamburgers (or veggie burgers for some). We went on a scenic hike up to a cliff that overlooks the lake, then returned to camp for smores and (for some), a late-night swimming adventure.

Tuesday, we had a nice breakfast of pancakes, followed by a morning full of viola-playing (yay!). We went back to camp for lunch (hot dogs), then went to beach for a refreshing break of swimming, volleyball, frisbee and suntanning. After that, we headed back to the church for more playing and practice time. Back at camp again, we had a nutritious dinner of baked potatoes. After dinner we had some free time to swim or walk or play badminton.
