Memories of MacSkimming…

These are a few fun, and random, memories that we will carry with us, from our time on the MacSkimming grade 6 overnight…

-My favourite experience from the MacSkimming trip was when I was able to sleep in until 6:30am, without any crying kids waking me up!  Ray

- One experience I will never forget is when we did predator and prey and Ray missed me with the ball :P - Yaro

-One of my memories is when I convinced Ray not to get me when we were playing Predator and Prey, by telling him that Yaro went “that way” when he hadn’t and Ray let me go!!!! -Miranda ;)

-One of my memories was all of the BUGS!😨-Cayley

- One of my memories was when I actually got away from Owen when he was chasing me during Predator and Prey. - Miranda

-One of my memories was failing so bad at the Fur Trade game that my team got a pitty beaver pelt from Owen. - Miranda

-One of my unforgettable experiences was during the fur trader game we found 9 boxes and none of them had are cards and the 10th box we found we had the things but there were no furs left.We passed by Owen and we told him our story and he gave us a pitty beaver.-Cayley

- One of my favorite memories of MacSkimming was on the second day and it was raining a lot. Another one of my favorite memories was the “chain of people when we were getting the bags off the bus

One of my memories at MacSkimming was when we were all 😎playing the Fur Trade game, and me and my friends were running away from teachers and parent volunteers were chasing us and we were carrying trade goods and we all had to get to this certain point where we could trade goods and such, then, we would have to do it all over again!

-(Jaidon) My favorite memory was when I played ‘predator and pray’ and sleeping in the cabins and I have a little condition with the woods from my old house in Quebec. not finished

- My favourite memory is the midnight walk, when I got all zen in the dark, and started to see in the dark and watch the rest of them

-One of my favourite memories from macskimming was when we played the fur trade game, it was really fun and we did well.

-My most memorable experience at macskimming was the campfire! I had an amazing time singing and dancing with all my friends! I really loved that we were all involved and everyone was into it! We were all moving and dancing and I really loved how some people got to lead some songs, it made it feel more of something we were running, not just an structured activity! I got lots of bug bites from my left hand being out there in the open for so long with my guitar, but it was still an amazing time to be with friends and make some more! - Vickie

-One of my favorite experiences from MacSkimming is when everyone was playing the Fur Trade game, the game was really fun and a little bit challenging! At one point my group found a fur but forgot where we got it. As we tried make it to the building we “got lost” and couldn't find the building where we could trade. We then ran into Owan and he made us rap Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. When we finished “rapping” we ended up releasing we had been walking (or running) in circles. When we finally got to the building to trade, the line was really, really long. We waited for a little bit then finally got in. We had to explain we didn't know where we got the fur. When we did we had to sing Let It Go from Frozen, the banker said that it was okay we didn't remember, and he appreciated our honesty, he then gave us more money.  - Gabby

- (Kasper) My favourite memory from MacSkimming. I loved the fur trading game. My team got caught a lot, but all we had to do was sing. In the end I wanted to play for longer but the time was up. I could have played the game ALL day.

-(Kasper) I loved the game Predator and Prey. I liked it because I was in the forest running so much. It was hard because I was always stuck in the mud and running away from other people (predator).
