Camp Hearties 2019- Week 3




Week 3- Marshmallows & Mounties
Judged by: Ben Rosenbaum


Teams had fun this week as they embraced Hope Valley's new Mountie and even had some fun at Sheriff Bill's expense.  There was also a jail involved for one team, the best kind of jail there is! And kindness for our hometown heroes! Continue on and join the fun of week 3 of Camp Hearties! Below are the tasks that teams had to choose from. 

Mandatory Tasks:
1)      Team Mascot Task- Being the new Mountie in town was tough on Nathan. Jack left big shoes to fill and a grumpy Sheriff who doesn’t like to share.   Now your mascot needs to prove themselves around camp! Send your mascot to a grocery store, to Aisle 3 and have them find an item that will be helpful around camp. Don’t forget to document!  
2)      Kindness Task- Spread kindness to our hometown heroes! Have a team member bring a treat to local law enforcement or fire house. Remember to snap a picture and let them know that Hearties love Heroes!
Optional Tasks: Please pick 3 of the following tasks.
3) Your team’s take on a new brunch menu for the Café that Bill left behind at the jailhouse.
4) Mountie Nate’s niece, Ally, needs help with her science fair project! Just please don’t blow up camp!
5) Sunday night is Mountie Nate’s night off to spend with Ally. Let’s see their snacks and game choice!
6) See how many team members can get into Twitter Jail using #CampHearties #Hearties and #JudgeBen! Maybe pick a time that works for your team to tweet together, who knows what shenanigans can arise! Screenshot of post failures as evidence!
7) The library wants artwork to spruce up the walls! Send in artwork showing your best Hope Valley spirit!

 Onto the judging brought to you by the always kind and gracious, Ben Rosenbaum! Ben's comments will be in blue.

Elizabeth's Entourage



 Ben-Awesome job on the popsicle stick Trojan horse! And this Trojan horse contains a great lesson hidden inside a fun activity! Perfect!
Please tell me you actually played that game of chess! I love chess! This looks like a really fun time, and once again there seems to be a focus on Nathan sharing the power of the brain with Allie in a fun way.
Bill’s Brunch is great! “Eat it or leave” is the perfect tag line. I’d never heard of “Angels on Horseback,” so I did some research and I’ve gotta say it looks like Bill decided to get fancy for one item on the menu! Bacon wrapped oysters… I hope Bill is able to have Lucas get him some fresh oysters! Or maybe he hopes a dose of mild food poisoning will end this whole brunch fad all together!😂

What a beautiful cake presentation! I just love it, and I’m sure the firefighters were very appreciative to get a treat and a visit from such a cute little delivery person. This is a very well documented trip to aisle 3, Squidget! Nice job!
Great camp illustration at the bottom!

 Ben-Hope Valley Shenanigans here I come! I love it already.
You’ve made such beautiful artwork for the library! So colorful and fun, I think you’ve perfectly captured the spirit of Hope Valley while staying true to your team style! Great job! I think the modern/abstract stuff would really blow some HV minds.😂
Wow, you really went to town on Twitter (and then to jail of course!). Now I finally understand all the #JudgeBen

tweets I was seeing last week! Nice dedication! I love that you used each team member’s emoji to represent them in the HV jail—nice touch!
Nathan and Allie are going to have stomach aches with all that candy AND Candy Land the game!
You brought cookies to your local fire department! That’s wonderful! I love the Camp challenges that bring joy to people in your communities! It looks like someone got a fun ride in the truck too! Win-win!
You found grits! Probably a good thing to eat something other than ice cream and candy… I never get enough of your mascot’s ice cream mask and proud smile. Delightful!

Women of Wonder

Ben-Yes! Your patriotic mascot and her adorable helper strike again! It looks like you guys found a well balanced camp meal: sweet and savory! I’m not sure if the shoes are meant to be Jack’s and Nathan’s, and in that case I don’t know whose would be whose… but I appreciate the visual aid!
That snacks and game night looks fun! Just like a lot of sleepovers I had with friends when I was a kid… though if I’m being honest we were more into video games than checkers, but this looks like the 1910’s equivalent!
Decorating a library with the covers of great works of both fiction and nonfiction really helps to remind visitors what they came for, and maybe even offers helpful suggestion if they’ve already reached the end of their summer reading list! Very thoughtful.
This menu is perfectly bland for Bill’s idea of brunch.😂 In fact I have a feeling Bill would probably object to the existence of a meal between or combining breakfast and lunch! So I think the effort level represented on this menu is exactly how much work Bill would put into it. You hit the nail on the head. Nice job!
Life guards are certainly heroes too! And probably don’t get as much recognition as they should. Bringing them water was a very kind thing to do. That’s thirsty work!
🤣🤣
Only one week left for our teams! I have loved all the creativeness and kindness that has been put out by Camp this year! Here are the stats at the end of week 3. Congratulations to all the teams, they are working hard! Join us next week for the final week of Camp Hearties!
