When the kids aren't outside and have some free time, you can always find them playing video games on the Wii.  Whether it be Super Smash Bros or Mario Kart, the Wii is always on and someone is aiming for first place.
Four things are going on in this photo.  To the left you see video games being played.  In the distance in the office you see a card game being played with staff versus kid.  To the right you see one of numerous classic movies being watched (Mighty Ducks on this particular day).  Lastly, the biggest thing seen is a game of pool, which is always sure to invite a few people to watch.
On some days, staff gets the opportunity to take the kids to the local gym, where a lot of them are very excited to play basketball.  As pictured here, you see one game going on in the background and another straight ahead, where someone (gray shirt) was about to make a clutch bucket to take the lead in their game of one-on-one.
Some of the kids prefer to shoot around by themselves, without the pressure of playing a game.  Usually when they're shooting around, they test their strength with shooting the longest shots possible.  As pictured above, the young kid wanted to see how far he could shoot, where he ended up having success.
On other days, staff likes to get the kids outside and engage in various other activities.  On this particular day, the first thing they wanted to do was relay races on one of the baseball diamonds, to test their speed and not worry about getting a little bit of dirt on themselves.
While excited to be having fun, eventually the kids started to run harder and faster as they'd see their competitor on the other side of the diamond about to cross home-plate before them.  Pictured here was someone who began to pick up speed so that her team wouldn't be far behind the other side in their race.
After the relay races were complete, the kids decided that they wanted to play soccer, specifically focused on their penalty kicks.  This part of their outside activities showed even more focus, as none of them wanted to miss the goal, as pictured here as he is completely locked-in on the task at hand.
As pictured here, we see one of the young girls giving it all of her strength to score a goal for her team.  Pictured in the goal is one of the programs' staff members, doing his best to deflect as many kicks as possible.
Just because this is a camp for the kids to have fun, doesn't mean that staff doesn't get out there and compete.  As pictured here, staff might've wanted to rethink being goalie.  All in all, still a fun experience with plenty of laughs for all that witnessed this.
