Hibernation
SPL definitely came out of its hibernation this week. Almost hundred girls of the Queen Margarets School (QMS) in Duncan arrived on Tuesday for their week of adventure at SPL. The Whale Room was busy again, the sauna was roaring and the paddling bay full of boats. This is the lodge in optima forma: lively, thriving and a bit chaotic so now en then.
A bunch of new instructors got their training last week and they are ready to roll. The weather has been cooperative so far, a bit of sunshine and not too much rain. The lack of rainfall has a downside to it. Because there is not a lot of water falling from the sky, the water level in the Upper Campbell Lake is lower then normal. In stead of walking down to the lake, you have to descent to the waterfront. Getting big freighter canoes in the water is therefore an adventure on itself.
Next week the grade tens of McMath will arrive for their week at SPL. They are going to do an adventure program. High ropes, rock climbing, canoeing, an overnight, zip lining, these guys are so lucky!
