Ashley and Caitlin's Camps: Day 1 Recap!

Aug 19, 2019 at 6:20 PM by Ashley

Hi campers & parents!

Today was our first day of a camp and we enjoyed meeting you all!

What did we do today?

  • After going over camp expectations, we explored the Marine Mammal Deck where we got to see different animals such as sea otters, sea lions, penguins and a Pacific White-Sided Dolphin!
  • Next, we came up with our camp names...Ashley's campers are called the DANCING DOLPHINS and Caitlin's campers are called the DAZZLING DOLPHINS!
  • After, we made some paper plate walrus crafts - they all looked "FIN-tastic!"
  • Before lunch, we had a leader led puppet show where we got to learn about mammals and other ocean creatures
  • In the afternoon, we dissected a herring fish and learned all about its anatomy
  • To finish off the day, we watched the sea lion program and learned all about them

Questions to ask your AquaCampers

  1. What does a herring feel like?
  2. Was your herring a boy or a girl?
  3. What was your favorite animal that we saw this morning in the gallery?

We hope your campers had fun today and can't wait to spend the rest of the week exploring our Ocean with you!

- Ashley :)
