8 Oakville Beaver Weekend Sunday July 30, 2000 POSTCARDS FROM CAMP Hand jiving back to the `50s To prepare for the first special event of the YMCA Art Extravaganza Camp, campers had been encouraged to partic ipate in a `Grease' theme week by cre ating costumes for Pink Ladies and TBirds. On Friday, July 14th, 2000 the counselors with their director, Shannon Speers, arrived at the YMCA Art Extravaganza Camp as the Pink Ladies from Grease. The counselors performed a skit for the children where their characters from the 1950's had gone to a fair and had accidentally gotten on a real time machine. The counselors had landed in the year 2000 with no way of getting home and it was up to the campers to help them. The children rotated between activities where they made friendship pins, had pretend tattoos drawn, completed a hula-hoop obstacle course and learned how to hand jive. By the time the activities were over, campers had been transformed into real `Pink Ladies' and `T-Birds' and were rewarded with a clue to help them find the `time machine' and a special pass which allowed them to board it. The cam p bus doubled as the `YMCA time machine' to transport the Pink Ladies and T-Birds back to the `50's with their counselors, and sur prised the campers by taking them to Nickels for milkshakes. The staff at Nickels went out o f their way to make the restaurant look and feel authentic. The juke box played while campers showed off their hand jiving and hulahoop skills to restaurant staff and patrons and it was hard to tell who was having more fun! Fortunately, the YMCA `Time Machine' managed to get the children back to the year 2000 just in time to go home! So the first week of the YMCA Art Extravaganza Camp ended with an imaginative journey through time that left the children laughing excitedly and looking forward to more creative expe riences.
