It’s 4th of July week and Kamp is celebrating in style. As I write this I can hear firecrackers being set off across the street at K-Kountry during one of their morning skits. Kampers are cheering loudly and you can tell the energy level is rising as we quickly approach this weekend’s festivities.
During the 4th of the July all schedules are changed and we spend the whole day celebrating. The Kampers often have longer “free-time,“ dress in stars and stripes and generally spend the entire day in celebration!
A highlight of the day at K-Seven and K-Kountry is a counselor-constructed parade that goes through the middle of Kamp. Kampers line the streets like NYC on Thanksgiving and counselors hand out icy-juicies while dressed in crazy costumes and riding on floats. This is typically followed by all you can eat watermelon and an old fashion rootbeer for each Kamper.
The day is finished off with all the Kamps coming together in Lampe and in Branson to enjoy a traditional fireworks show under the stars.
Our nations birthday is a big deal at Kanakuk. We love a good reason to celebrate all week long! How are you celebrating this year?
