#BnS122 - Summer CampThe deadline for this challenge is 10th July 2019It isn’t often you meet a client at a site, but this is the perfect day for it. The sun is shining and the whole land seems to turn its face toward its warmth and smile. There is a gentle breeze rustling through the trees and a bee bumbles past you as you walk from your car toward the shrieks of laughter coming from the children.
From across the field you see Mrs. Davis smile and wave at you. You return the gesture and soon are shaking hands.
“Thank you so much for agreeing to meet me here,” Mrs. Davis says.
“It is my pleasure,” you say. “Such a beautiful site. And the children already seem to love it!”
“We are hoping to make that a reality for many more children,” she says. “So many kids who have only ever known the city. Summer camp might be the first time they’ve ever been around trees and open air.”
You nod and take out your notebook. “So what are you looking for?”
“The usual, mostly,” Mrs. Davis says as she fends off a pair of rambunctious children playing swords with sticks. “Cabins for the kids, toilets and baths, mess hall, office...”
You are both distracted by the sudden wail of a child having fallen down and scraped a knee. Another adult scoops him up.
“Oh yes, and a nursing station,” she says with a sigh. “Of course, outdoor activities, too. That is the main point.”
“Of course,” you agree, jotting down ideas already as you look around you and think of how you can fit things in without losing the natural beauty here.
“When do you think it can be ready?” Mrs. Davis asks.
“I think you can expect your first batch of summer camp recruits two weeks from now,” you say with a smile, loving how surprised she looks.

ENTRY DETAILS: This is my first ever build for a challenge….it’s been fun! My screen shots are nowhere near the great pics I see you guys posting but I hope you get the idea…..
Camp SunnySim is all about getting back to basics and into the outdoors, and I’ve tried to make it feel like the camp blends in with the surrounding area. With space for 8 girls and 10 boys, the sleeping might be basic but the camp offers lots of activities…swimming and canoeing on the lake, fishing, horse riding, bike riding, axe throwing, camp fires and a climbing wall…..there’s also arts & crafts and a chance for kids to show off their talents on stage in the nightly show.
CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM: Yes please
CREDIT FOR CC/RECOLORS: Lots of CC used – some recoloured by me (I learned some SimsStudio just for this challenge!) I love CC and got much of it before I realised I’d need to credit but includes – Severinka, SimDoughnit, Ozyman, Budgie….apologies to the many other amazing artists that I’ve definitely missed! I tried to keep the CC cost in line with maxis costs (no $1/high quality etc)
