Mish Mash Live 2014









Mish Mash Live was an exciting and new event hosted by Camp War Eagle for families whose children attended camp in the summer of 2014. The event was held on September 15th at Camp War Eagle in Rogers and over 80 families attended. As families arrived, they were greeted with excitement as university students who had worked as counselors this past summer welcomed children (and their parents!) back to camp! The night began with an outdoor dinner followed by Mish Mash, which is a beloved event at Camp War Eagle where all the activities are open at camp and children get to choose what they want to experience. At Mish Mash Live families enjoyed water activities, a foam pit, water slides, dodgeball, archery, pig chasing, a petting zoo, outdoor adventures, dancing, soccer, an inflatable and mini golf. Parents were able to experience the fun of Camp War Eagle alongside their children and join in the new and exciting activities as if they were campers themselves! 
The majority of Camp War Eagle’s year-round staff worked the event and were available to meet families, make relationships, and answer any questions. As the activities were closing down, families were brought together to hear more information about Camp War Eagle activities, win prizes, and watch fireworks! At the end of the event, many families expressed their gratitude. One mother said of Mish Mash Live, “Our family has been so excited to come to Camp War Eagle together! One of our sons has attended camp for three years! Our daughter has a disability and attends another camp in Oklahoma. This event allowed our family to experience camp and have fun together! Thank you for this opportunity!” Camp War Eagle plans to host another Mish Mash Live event in April of 2015.
