Hello, boys and girls. Welcome to our Summer Camp Day! It is a team competition taking place once every year both at the festival and on our website!

There are four teams: red, yellow, blue, and purple. You can join a team by joining the team’s Facebook group. Within each group, team members work together on how they can win the competition, and decide more fun things like team songs, team flags and so on.

Each year, one team will be named the Summer Camp Day Champion. The winning team will be decided at the end of the festival, and we will fly their flag that day. The winning team will also get a party.

As a team member, you have to wear your team color and encourage your teammates, or join in games. The games include spelling game, guessing game, water ball game and soccer game.
