What do you do at XC camp with the down time, between runs. I'm taking about 20 kids camping 4 days and 3 nights. Looking for some fun things to do.
Thanks.

When my team went to XC camp - ages ago - we spent most of our downtime either playing frisbee golf or at the pool. We also had sessions on training, race tactics, nutrition, etc.
Are you a pedophile?
What kind of question is this?
You run, talk about running, run again. Eat, sleep and run.

Bring board games. Lots of board games. Couple deck of cards. The kids for the most will find a way to entertain themselves no matter how bored you think they should be. Keep an eye on the troublesome ones, I spent the entire time attempting to work game on the younger chicks. Wait until you think you are the last person awake - then wait another hour before you go to bed. Trust me...
Camp was some of the most fun times I had during hs xc, and it was also the only time anyone ever got into any trouble. Something to account for.

yeah, watch it or you'll have a pregnant teen on your hands. We used to have pretty irresponsible sex at our camps. I am amazed that no lawsuits or pregnancies came from those trips.
I am being entirely serious.

Oh man, brings back memories of my XC camps. Lots of fun. Lots of fun.
What is it about camps that makes people drop their usual guard?
i think you should bring some bears

Since it's August it will probably be too damn hot to want to do anything. When my team went we were basically vegetables between workouts.

I second that, definitely need some bears.
Why do things like this have to be overplanned?
Let kids be kids - let them use thier mind to figure out what to do.
Plus if you run them enough all they will want to do is sleep between runs
