Practising circus skills:
Practising circus skills:
Developing stunt skills (strapped with bungee cords to a water carrier!):
Creating marvellous things out of balsa wood:
Secret rendevous in children's tents:
Sharing campfires every night:
Making and listening to music:
Sweatshirts nearly as loud as the music:
Watching movies at the Groovie Movie tent:
Dusting off those big hats and old (2005) HESFES t-shirts:
Making hula hoops:
Remembering old skills:
Making new friends:
