I think a mix of puzzle challenges and the og ones would be nice!

potential timeline + challenge stuff? (feel free to make changes!):
first 2-4 days: campers introduce themselves to get to know each other! perhaps we can have a little icebreaker activity? also could be good for helping new campers get used to swc and not overwhelm them with the storyline^^

first 2 weeks: spell challenges + animal challenges! sometime during the second week campers will have the choice to help with the rebellion or not? I think we won’t have to worry about them not helping with the rebellion. I think these could be available right at the start of camp, just the first 2-4 days could have a focus on campers getting to know eachother.

spell ideas:
- weather spell (for the house)
- awakening spell (for the poppies)
- perhaps some sort of mind control or hypnotizing spell? (for the role play activity with the guards- perhaps guards could be volunteers?)
- compass (lifeline)

animal challenge:
one collaborative story! we’ve already talked about this so I won’t say much here!

week 3: yellow brick road! I think we’ve pretty much got a general idea for this?

challenge ideas:
- poppies
- guards (role play activity?)
- house is in the way

week 4: final challenge

similar to cabin wars- and animal helpers will be ‘mercs’ like you said. I’m assuming 1 animal challenge completed = 1 mango (or whatever we’ll be calling them in this-) I think the due date will be until the end of camp. I’m thinking we’ll have 3-4 ‘wars’ for them, each one being accompanied by a flying monkey. I think the wars and/or challenges being themed with our cabin’s theme would be nice!

I think working on studio and project thumbnails would be good

Thank you so much for the timeline Mildred <33

Oooo yes!! I think two truths and a lie is always nice and simple– campers can introduce themselves and include that, it opens up for some in-cabin bonding and stuff <33

Do we want to do QOTD's? I think it's fun and encourages activity and stuff- each of us could do 11 and I could pick and chose each day <3

Yep– I think probably one of our animal accounts would be able to like host a poll or something in the fantasy cabin and campers could vote yes or no!!

Speaking of animal accounts, we should probably get those set up! I think something like (animalname)-Fantasy25 would work, what do you guys think?

Yeah I think as soon as we can get them out that would be good, probably around March 1st-3rd would be ideal <3

Looks good! Perhaps:
Weather spell
-Complete 7 dailies (this is half of the two weeks so it should be nice and reachable)
Awakening spell
-Maybe like a word search? That's something I can pull together real quick
Hypnosis spell
-Complete 2 weeklies??
Compass spell
- This could be a crossword, maybe, another thing that would be fun but also easy to pull together <3

Do we want some of the other volunteers to be guards, and campers have to write xxx words of roleplay?

Oooo yesss I love how this sounds! So for each animal challenge completed they would get a little bonus that would help them, right?
Would we want all the wars to be released like in a project at the same time, or release them in a stagger? And what would we have in mind for the flying monkeys- like what sort of challenge would they be?

Thanks for the reminder hehe, I'll get to that asap <3

I took a peek at the March calendar and here is what I came up with:
March 1st and 2nd: Introduction Activity
March 1st-14th: School and Spell/Animal Challenges
March 15th-21st/22nd: Yellow Brick Road
-March 15th, Intro to the yellow brick road
-March 16th-18th: Challenge 1
-March 18th-20th: Challenge 2
-March 20th-22nd: Challenge 3
(of course, this is just a vague outline and we can add/subtract dates from challenges based on how quickly they get stuff done <3)
March 23rd-31st: WIZARD BATTLEEEE

I thought it would be fun if our animal accounts could like come and cheer them on and provide support/chaos as well throughout session– like after they finish 1 checkpoint one of our animal helpers can come and start interacting and stuff, after 2 another one can come… and so on!!
