The final week of Food, Fun, and Fitness (FFF) wrapped up the four-week program with joy and creativity. Campers explored backyard nature with Shawna and Garret from Florence County Land Conservation. They identified local plants, insects, and wildlife, turning the ordinary into an adventure. A sunny slip ‘n slide afternoon brought classic summer fun. Kids got creative with crafts, fruit kabobs, and LEGO builds, followed by the much-loved Strawberry Social. Families joined for strawberry shortcake, ice cream, and jam made from berries picked in week 3! With full bellies and happy hearts, campers closed out another unforgettable summer at FFF.

We hope the FFF participants had a wonderful week off and enjoyed all the fun we had when they came back! We went to Pellegrini's Strawberry Farm and city park for a field trip and back at school we had loads of fun with building boats and seeing how many rocks they could hold, the participants road a smoothie bike, played environment bingo, and made sea creatures out of different shapes! They also had some water fun and there will be even more fun next week!

Week 2 is over, and our staff and participants are now on break! Participants had a blast running through sprinklers, planting flowers, building mini aquariums, and creating tasty treats like trail mix and chocolate hummus. They also got crafty with paper plate pufferfish (try saying that five times fast!), built sandcastles out of pool noodles, battled it out with water balloons, and made colorful slime.
The Food, Fun, and Fitness (FFF) program would like to extend a heartfelt thank-you to Craig Soderberg and Kay Pestor of Freedom Greenhouse and Fireworks in Florence for their generous donation of flowers. Thanks to their support, all 150 participants had the joy of getting their hands dirty and planting something beautiful.
Happy Fourth everyone!

Our FFF leaders were super excited to WHALE-come this year's participates to our "under the sea" themed camp this year! Our amazing staff planned tons of fun activities for the children including oceans in a bottle, painting reusable bags, water balloons, growing micronutrients, making their own shrink-E-dinks, watching a wonderful skit put on by the Youth Leaders, and making bird feeders! Ask your child about all the other fun things we did, I'm sure they have lots of stories! We are excited to see them again for week 2 with more and more fun!!!
