This week during the Silver Bay Games teams played one of the more difficult games: "Blind Trust". In this game 3 members of each team were blindfolded and tied together. The remaining team member had to guide their team members through the obstacle course. Once the course was completed teams had to untie and unblindfold themselves before raising their team flag to claim victory. Teamwork, trust, and communication turned out to be the most important skills during this challenge. Make sure to cheer your favorite team on as they race towards the end in this game of Blind Trust. In addition to winning games, teams can earn additional points for every dollar donated to their team.

We were joined by Carolyn Close and Sarah Spitzer this week to discuss their experience playing the Silver Bay Games. Carolyn and Sarah both whole heartedly believe that the people are what makes Silver Bay YMCA so special. While Silver Bay YMCA is surrounded by beauty, its the staff, guests, and donors that really bring Silver Bay to life, and make it such a special place and an asset to the community. Silver Bay YMCA extends its reach into Ticonderoga through the Silver Bay YMCA Ticonderoga Teen Center, which provides a safe space for teens to hang out after school while also giving them opportunities to learn new life skills such as cooking. Silver Bay YMCA also offers respite programs such as their Cancer Respite, Military R&R, Foster and Adoptive Family Retreat Program among others. These programs wouldn't have been possible without the support of the Silver Bay YMCA community.

One week until Giving Tuesday! With donations coming in daily, teams are eager to see who will come out on top for the first ever Silver Bay Games. Every donation counts, so make sure to donate to your favorite team to help them win the games! This week teams will be playing "Stay Afloat". This game put teams creativity, knowledge of physics, and quick thinking to the test. Due to the innovation displayed by teams, creativity played a huge part in this game, letting our teams put their art skills to the test. While teams didn't have time to break out any skills they may have learned in the Squire Studio, or from the daily water color painting classes offered in the summer they each put their own artistic flare on their designs. Silver Bay YMCA is known for its many arts related programming from basket weaving in the Squire Studio to pumpkin painting in the fall. Donations to Silver Bay YMCA allows Silver Bay to keep offering programs like these, and creating new art related programming to enjoy.
