Don’t Sink By Navid Rodd

This year in Big Brother Little Brother campers played a new game called “Don’t Sink!” The game is similar to King of the Court in that campers run around camp trying to make their way to the top of the totem pole in a variety of games. Some winners of this year’s Big Brother Little Brother event included: ELI FRIEDMAN, HENRY CHABOT, MILES RACENSTEIN, among others. SAM MILLER said that this year’s event was the “best one yet!” Campers played all different kinds of games from soccer to bag-o. MAX PTASZNIK said that he “bonded with his little brother who he’s never had a chance to talk to before”. ELI FELDMAN was able to find the Golden Ticket which meant that his team would be prevented from sinking for the entire game. Little Brother, Big Brother this year has been one to remember, and we hope to see many more collaborative events in the future. Con- gratulations to all of the winners!

JAKE HOODACK takes a slap shot as a crowd looks on. Campers had to attempt to score a hockey goal in order to advance their team during “Don’t Sink”, the Big and Little Brother bonding activity. The team that was able to stay atop the hockey ac- tivity won the game.

TREY DE LIO sends a pass towards MAX PTASZNIK and JOSH GOODMAN while defended by JOSH NAMRODI. Both teams needed to score baskets on the Mike Dunleavy courts in order to avoid “sinking” to a new event during the Big Brother Little Brother bonding activity.

Spirit Determination Heart Leadership Attitude Sportsmanship King of the Camp Senior Tetherball By Jakob Czupek

It was a boiling Wednesday. Tumbleweed rolled across the athletic fields as members of each team gathered around the tetherball pole and stared each other down. CHARLIE RATTERMAN of the Dragons faced off against HENRY CHABOT of the Purple Knights. After a hard fought match, HENRY came out on top despite his broken arm. Afterwards, MILES RACENSTEIN of the Phoenix faced off with Thunderbird SAMMY MARKS. MILES defeated SAMMY en route to the title match. As MILES and HENRY stepped into the circle, everyone knew it would be an interest- ing game. In a best-of-7 series, HENRY prevailed, sweeping the competition and earning the right to crown himself King of Tetherball. Congratulations to all the competitors during senior tether- ball, everyone left it all on the court and showcased their respectable tetherball skills. Keep up the good work throughout the rest of the competition.
