Badges, pins, awards and prizes

Tonight we celebrated our year together.

We had a soccer theme and we walked to pick up our happy meals. Inside each box was a squishmallow in a team jersey. We tried the Tim Bits representing four of the FIFA countries.

We gave out special patches to those who helped sell cookies at Michael’s. We gave a special camper award to Lucy for selling 20 cases of cookies. She will be going to Camp Olave this summer.

We gave away a few prizes and used the prize wheel to do so.

Have a great summer everyone.
