Opening Show
WELCOME TO CAMP! We want you guys to “get your game on” with an exciting night filled with stage games, silly videos, the chance to say hello to some of the most exciting, creative, and fun-loving people the theater has ever seen. Of course, we’ll have a few guidelines to ensure we all have a safe and fun experience while at camp, but we know everyone will have a blast as we start Camp off right! What to Wear: Whatever you wore as you arrived at camp.
Induction Ceremony
Blaze, Hydro, and Quake. Three ancient Squads from centuries past. While they come together each summer to battle for control of the WinShape Kingdom, their ties run deep. At our Induction Ceremony, only those receiving their Squad or who are active members are welcome. We’ll have the chance to share the legend behind how our Squads were formed and then allow first-time campers the opportunity to be inducted. What to Wear: We encourage campers and staff to wear their Squad colors! Red & Yellow for Blaze, Blue & Silver for Hydro, and Green & Brown for Quake. There will be plenty of Squad SWAG that you can grab from the Camp Store during Check-in on Spectacular Starting Sunday!
Monday Funday
Water is the name of the game for this Camp-Wide Event. Whether you’re at the outdoor pool, playing water games on the front-lawn, or something in between, you’ll be sure to get SOAKED throughout the morning.
