Another day the campers learned how to make scones on the grill and the camp finale was a Mexican fiesta with tacos, salsa, and watermelon. “We had a bagpiper for Irish day and the Voices of Africa were here NE TH = Girl Scouts circle the globe in a week for another day,” said Tomaselli, who was the camp’s co-director along with Kim Smith. “The Voices of Africa” are a musical group from Philadelphia who taught the girls some authen- tic rhythmic beats from Ghana. “That was a lot of fun,” Tomaselli said. The camp would not be possible without the help of many volun- teers. “The counselors are just amazing and the moms who help out under the pavilion all week are terrific,” Tomaselli said. In addi- tion to the special themed activi- ties, campers also enjoyed a swim day, hiking and a scavenger hunt in the park.
