If Leadership Academy is known for anything, it’s safe to say that it can be
found in its name. Activities from yesterday taught some of the main concepts
in what the camp is about, leadership and communication. The house groups Woda,
Air, Tubig, Wasser, Vatten, and Mizu got together to strengthen the bonds in their
houses. The members of the houses played games that took teamwork,
communication, and some management kills. The games included a mine field,
where one person guided a blindfolded partner through a perilous field of poppable
balloons; Hesitation; Pika Pika Tonga Tonga, a game of dire concentration; and
Helium Hoop, just to name a few.
The main event of the night, though, was when the houses had
to build a contraption that would allow them to drop their ceramic mascots from
twelve feet onto the cement ground. Each group was given a bag filled with
paper bags, newspaper, rubber bits, and other supplies that could protect our
plaster pet. The twist? Each member was disabled in one way – some were
blindfolded, some couldn’t talk, and the rest were only able to speak.
The end result was Gravity: 3 and Houses: 3 – so a tie.
Way to go, Woda, Mizu, and Tupig!
Rest in pieces, Bruce.
