Fairy Tale Saturday

2006.1

Big Time Saturday, where the theme was time. Bret had confiscated a lanyard from a gorilla that was swinging it, and started swinging it himself to see why kids enjoyed it so much. It turned out that it was a magical time-travel lanyard, and took him through 6 time periods, and within each one someone wanted to obtain the lanyard. Finally, the lights went out, and it was gone, and the campers had to vote on who stole it and who their helpers were.

2006.2

Sequel Saturday, as it was the second Saturday of the Second Session, and there were many sequel related things. The plot was the Redux, the evil goddess of sequels, was mad at CTY for keeping us kids out of the movie theatres during the summer, time of so many sequels, and she was using her evil sequel minions to destroy the Dickinson campus. Some RAs had betrayed CTY and gone to her side, and the campers had to vote. Big Sequel Saturday was awesome, especially the Darth Vader costume that RA Pat made and wore.

Big Canon Saturday. Jacob the SRA banned Canon, and as a result was attacked by the incarnations of Nightswimming, Forever Young, and more. The students then earned tickets which could be redeemed to:

• American Pie an RA
• Host your own activity
• Make an RA take you to Massey's

and many other things.

Big Saturday was a fair-type event, with several events taking place on the Residential Quad. Cotton Candy and Sno Cones were served throughout Big Saturday. Some of the activities included:

• The Eliminator, an obstacle course where students were constantly under attack from sponges hurled by RAs. Only about 1 percent of kids made it.
• A wedding booth manned by Ted the RA, armed with an automatic nerf gun.
• A giant noodle fight.
• A giant wall, to be climbed over. This was made with cardboard boxes.
• Mafia.
• Prison break, where students attempted to escape Super Quad, avoiding RAs with

nerf guns and pool noodles.

• Rock em Sock em robots, where students would build armor, helmets, and weapons for their RA with duct tape and cardboard,

and then the RAs would fight.

• Mellow quad was also offered.
