Camp Hillcroft Day Camp

Bring Some Hillcroft Fun Home For the Fall

Here's what our Families are Saying!

Parent of 7th, 8th and Counselor, 2nd Summer at Hillcroft

My three children went there one as a counselor and the other two as campers and they all have had the time of their lives. They made wonderful memories. Their experience has brought the best out in them, they are looking forward to returning. my heart was over joyed daily from their happiness at Camp Hillcroft.

Feeling bored now that your school routine is in full swing? Missing the nonstop adventure of a day at Hillcroft? Well look no further, because we have created a small list of some indoor games you can enjoy at home this year!

“G-H-O-S-T” -The first player says a letter. The next person adds a letter, attempting to spell a word. For example, the beginning of a round might sound like this: "E." "N." "G." "A." The one saying the final letter of a word more then 3 letters long loses. Every time a person loses they earn a letter from GHOST (like in the game HORSE) The first person to lose 5 times and therefore spell GHOST is out. Continue play until there is a winner.

“Would You Rather?” – designed to help players learn about each other, this game is set up in a circle. Each player takes a turn asking a “would you rather…. Or ….?” Question to the group. For example, “Would you rather eat only tomatoes for the rest of your life, or never eat a tomato again?” Everyone will have to pick one choice, and then continue around the circle asking questions.

“I’m Going to a Picnic” (best played with a large group) – Again, players will begin in a circle. The first player says “I’m going to a picnic and I’m going to bring…” and selects a food with the starting letter “A” to bring. The next person will repeat what the first player said, then add a food with the starting letter “B”. This will continue in alphabetical order around the circle, creating a long list of foods that must be memorized. ( Example: “I’m going to a picnic and I’m going to bring an apple, a banana, a crossaint, a devil’s food cake….etc”)

Try these games on a rainy day with some friends, or in class one day with your teacher! They’ll make any day fun just like here at Hillcroft!
