camping birthday party image
Brooklyn
I am having a camping themed birthday party late August. I have a few ideas such as:
~Swimming in the lake (a.k.a our pool)
~Making s'mores with our fire pit
~Watching a movie under the stars (we got a projector and a screen + will be watching from the tent)
I think a camping themed party is kind of out there and might be hard to pull off. Can you think of any ideas for the party (in general or specifics) or any suggestions other than the ones listed above?
P.S: I have NEVER been camping so I don't really have the experience like others, so is there anything that I am missing that makes camping truly spectacular? Thanks!
A few things to keep in mind:
~ I am a girl going into Middle School and so is everyone else I am inviting.
~ It will be a 'Slumber Party' also, so any ideas that we would do later in the party would be great!
~ Anything camp related will be appreciated, from food ideas to activities.
~ We won't actually be sleeping outside.

Cool, that's creative! I suggest that you make your own invites. It could be come to Camp ___ (your last name or first or whatever) and your address for some Creepy, Crawling, Camp Fun! You could have a scavenger hunt with teams and a point system. And tell scary stories under the stars. Also you could make these "BBQ" cupcakes. There's some on pinterest, it's basically icing and candy to look like a grill. And there's a similar cake design. You could have a bonfire and ask everyone to bring their latest school stuff and burn it. Y'all could all make t shirts with Camp whatever on it. It's easy, just get a pack of colored tees and iron on letters or fabric markers. When y'all are outside roasting marshmallows or whatever you could put on a campfire song (spongebob lol) or just the sound of nature. In goody bags you could give out fake bugs, lip gloss, etc...also a camp survival kit (band aids, water bottle, flashlight mini, compass, and trail mix.)
You could have games like 'fear factor' with obstacle courses or like apple bobbing except one of the apples has a fake bug in it to find or something? Prizes could be candy, magnetic fishing pole (dollar store) whatever. Also for food you can have dirt ice cream which is crushed Oreos, favorite ice cream and gummy worms. You can use lanterns for the scavenger hunt and hid glow in the dark bugs and stuff. Look for fireflys and such. Make it a fun one and good luck!

What are the BEST shoes for advanced beginner rock climbing?
the awesom
I have climbed in my past, like at summer camp and birthday parties, but this summer I really began climbing more. I go to a indoor climbing gym a couple times a week, and want to join a team, so I want to invest in a good pair of shoes and a harness.
I'm 15 and have fairly narrow feet, so what are some good brands? Are laced up better than velcro? What other gear should I consider buying? Any other tips would be awesome!
Thanks in advance!
Answer
The best shoes to get are shoes that fit your feet along with the type of climbing you plan on doing. Different brands and models will fit different people. La Sportiva are known to be more narrow while 5.10 are wider. Since you are still a "beginner" I would stear away from the overly agressive shoes with a down turned toe. You dont need them yet and they wont help you develop good climbing technique on less steep routes you will be climbing at your current skill level. I would suggest an entry level shoe. Make sure you try them on and get a feel for them. Also, make sure you have an experienced climber help you with your choice. They will be able to help you choose the size based on the construction of the shoe. Some shoes will stretch as much as a 1/2 size over a very short time, while others wont stretch much at all. So you will want to keep that in mind as you are trying them on. Laced shoes offer the ability to "customize" the fit but adjusting the laces at the toes, half way up, and at the top while slippers provide an easy on/off. Velcro is the best of both words. You cant get them on as quickly as slippers. And you cant customize the fit as well as laced. Keep this in mind while you are making your purchase.
Other gear:
To save yourself money over time, get yourself a harness (again, fit is everything so try them on and actually hang from a rope in them before deciding), chalk/chalkbag, and if your local gym charges you to rent belay devices, invest in an ATC & large locking carabiner. That is all you really need to get started climbing indoors.
In the end, proper fit is priority 1!
-Good luck
