Camp Clock<br />
A camp clock is a time schedule <strong>of</strong> activities and should be done in large blocks <strong>of</strong> time. It could cover a single day<br />
or an entire weekend. Camp clocks are planned with the girls and should allow for rest periods and free time.<br />
A Camp Clock might include:<br />
•• Campsite setup<br />
•• Time to get up<br />
•• Flag raising ceremony<br />
•• Breakfast and clean-up (allow 2 hours if cooking)<br />
•• Morning activities and free time<br />
•• Lunch and quiet time<br />
•• Afternoon activities<br />
•• Dinner and clean-up (allow minimum 2 hours)<br />
•• Flag lowering ceremony<br />
•• Evening program<br />
•• Bedtime<br />
•• Lights out<br />
•• Final camp cleanup<br />
Throughout the entire camp day, there should be a balance between active and quiet pursuits, which needs to be<br />
considered when planning your event. Leaders should watch each camper for signs <strong>of</strong> over stimulation and ease<br />
<strong>of</strong>f activities accordingly. If campers understand the reason for rest after lunch, they will accept it as a pleasure<br />
and not a penance.<br />
