Famous Ginger Visits Camp

To go along with our "Moo-vin' and Groovin'" theme, we had a visit from Ginger, the dairy cow last night. Ginger is part of the Southland Dairy Farmers' Mobile Dairy Classroom exhibit. Instructor LaVaun Janney did a great job of explaining the dairy industry to campers and then demonstrated milking a cow using the milking machine setup in the trailer. The exhibit provided a great view for campers.

Then, we celebrated with an ice cream sundae party. June is Dairy Month! Get your protein and calcium!

Do we see why her camp name is Dairy Queen? LOL
