Longhorn Cup 2008

Longhorn Cup is kind of the Camp Longhorn Olympics, camp officials elaborate:

Campers enjoy bouncing on Blobs covered in baby oil, swimming in costume-themed relay races, tossing rings through hoops on the mighty Lazy Lagoon, creating a chewing-gum sculpture, and playing Ultimate Frisbee.

Here is my daughter (center) preparing for the day with her posse. I know they’re members of the red team because it’s written boldly across their stomachs.

 

 

 

 

 

The baby oil on the blob thing doesn’t look too simple.

 

 

 

 

 

 

But the rally at the end makes it all look worth while.

    I went to CLH, so seeing these pics brings back great memories!

    Question - do you have permission from the parents of those other kids to post pics of their kids in swimsuits in a public forum like this? (I know the CLH picture website is password protected). I’m sure most wouldn’t mind, but you never know. Lots of parents are pretty careful about stuff like that given all the crazy internet child predators out there.

    Um, the moms of the girls in the picts don’t care, I know ‘em. But I’ve sent releases to all the kids parents in that big arena type shot. Really. Every single one of them, even the ones you can’t see so good.

    Good grief, Justaquestion. Lighten up.

    Merritt is my hero.
