Delegation of the Day: The Netherlands

The first activity was to build your own imaginary city with weird/unfair laws. You were able to write and decide your own laws within your group. Diversity was the main theme in this game. Clearly every country had its own opinion on topics like men versus women, and blondes versus brunettes (groups were assigned to make the city and laws). It was an eye-opener for most of us because we were able to see where biases are and talk about what parts of the world and history had rules that separate people based on characteristics they cannot control. Later in the day was our first excursion with that being swimming day!! It was great to ride on an American yellow school bus! This also had to do with diversity because there were 6 lifeguards and many rules to keep us safe. This was different from many other countries "norms". When we got back to camp we had a great dinner of homemade lasagna and a "worm/dirt" dessert (vanilla pudding with Oreo cookie crumbs).
