What was that noise people heard in the distance? Suddenly a big crowd of kids on a voyager canoe were appearing from behind an island. They were yelling “Stroke!, Stroke!, Stroke!,” and they zoomed through the water slowly reaching the dock. But who were they? That was us, a group of 19 determined sixth graders. Our paddles kept going until we reached our goal. We were using teamwork, one of the skills we learned at Camp Anokijig as tired as we already were. This took place on a little, but big lake- Elkhart Lake. As we were stroking, the big, fast, voyager canoe went through the clear blue water, like it was a mirror. Now, you’re probably trying to guess what else we did there. To start off, our freetime was loud. All 38 kids were doing something along the lakeside in the sand. Our classes were great too. There were canoes, paddleboats, rowboats, voyager canoes, a clear bottom boat, and kayaks we all went in on Little Elkhart Lake. During class we also took tests in the lake, pond, and creek like real scientists, and also made timber sticks while exploring and measuring trees. In freetime the little ping pong balls were going across the table in table tennis, while some people decided to smack the volleyball across the net. There was basketball, and tetherball also going on. You could hear the swoosh of the arrows as they went by to hit the target. We got to buy snacks, clothing, and other items at the Trading Post. That is a little part about Camp Anokijig. I hope you learned what you will see at camp. It was a great experience for me. With wetness involved, and boating too, what more can you get. This is the place to be, with an experience you can only remember and see for yourself. I hope this summary of my experience persuaded you to go to Camp Anokijig by Little Elkhart Lake.
