A Moment in the Life of Future Stars Campers

This past summer, we featured "Camper Moments" every Wednesday from our different camps.  Though, Future Stars Camps 2018 has come to a close, we will continue to share our campers' and counselors' experiences.  Please contact us with any requests to know more about Future Stars Camps at: purchase@fscamps.com

Meet Aahana! She is 7 years old and is in her 3rd week of Horseback Riding camp and is loving it! She had never ridden a horse before this camp and now wants to keep coming back.  She has a twin brother who is in Multi-Sports camp, but this week she did her own thing.  Check out my conversation below with this cute and friendly girl.

Megan:  Hi Aahana!

Aahana:  “Hi Megan”

Megan:  So, is this is your first year at horseback riding camp?

Aahana:  “Yeah, this is my first year at Future Stars.”

Megan:  And, how have you been liking camp?

Aahana:  “I really like it, I want to come back next year.”

Megan:  So, I have seen you talking to your brothers at lunch, how old are they?

Aahana:  “Well, I have a twin brother here, he is in Multi-Sports.  And I have an older brother who is in Baseball camp and he is 11.”

Megan:  Awesome!  Did your brother who was 11 come here for the first time this year?

Aahana:  “No this is is his 3rd year, he always does baseball.  But it is my and my twin brother’s first time.”

Megan:  So, what has been your favorite part about horseback riding camp?

Aahana:  “I like learning how to ride and trotting with Annie.”

Megan:  Who is Annie?

Aahana:  “The horse, I usually ride.  I have only ridden one other horse and her name is June.”

Megan:  Why do you like Annie?

Aahana:  “She is pretty.  She is white with black spots.  I think that she has a good trot.”

Megan:  So, do you think if you come back, you would just want to do horseback riding again, or try something else?

Aahana:  “Well, I am joining Multi-Sports with my brother next week, so maybe I’ll do that again if I like it.  But I really like horseback riding.”

Megan:  So, how is school, what do you like about your school year?

Aahana:  “Well, it is funny because I have the same teacher this year in 2nd grade as I had in kindergarten because she’s moving to the 2nd grade, and the same thing is happening to my brother (but we are in different classes).”

Megan:  That is funny! So, what do you like to do after school?

Aahana:  “Well, I like soccer, ballet, and gymnastics.  But, I also like to play basketball and baseball with my brothers.  I also like to play with my friends.  We play things like house and mermaids.”

Megan:  What do you think you want to be when your older?

Aahana:  “A chef or a swimmer.”

Megan:  Do you swim and cook?

Aahana:  “Yeah, I take swimming lessons and I did a cooking class for afterschool this year.”

Megan:  That’s so fun! What types of things did you make?

Aahana:  “We made pretzels, cookies, and all sorts of treats!  We made so many things.”

Megan:  What else do you like Aahana?

Aahana:  “Well, I like math, I’m pretty good at it.  My brother is good at it, too”

Megan:  That’s great! School’s important.  Do you think that you and your brother are competitive?  Do you ever try to do things better than each other?

Aahana:  “Well, kind of sometimes.  But at the same time not really because I am always doing it better :).”

Megan:  You’re funny.  Well, it was so great talking to you Aahana! I hope you have fun in Multi-Sports camp next week!
