Shad Valley Student Blog 2008. Thursday, July 31, 2008. July 25, 2008. The Saddest Day - Leaving Shad! Months ago, when asked the question: What is Shad? I answered sarcastically that it's a nerd camp, little did I know that leaving this “nerd camp” would turn out to be one of the most difficult things I have ever done. However, as I sat there at Totem and watched the sunrise for the last time, signs of the end finally hit me. A sheet was posted on the lounge wall that listed when all the Shads are g...

Shad Valley Student Blog 2008. Monday, July 14, 2008. July 11, 2008. Today, like any other day, the Carleton Shads awoke at roughly 7:30 am, caught a quick breakfast and headed down to our main lecture hall to begin. This was followed by a large dose of physical recreation. If you don’t believe that there would be a way to incorporate fifty shads into one game of foosball, you have clearly never met the creative and brilliant staff of Shad Valley Carleton. Hometown: Mississauga, Ontario. This blog shares...

The 2009 Shad Valley Student Blog. Wednesday, July 22, 2009. This morning was a refreshing one, as all Shads woke up with satisfaction at the successful house project presentations the night before. After all the learning, creativity, and a little bit of frustration, we had finally completed our house projects. Perhaps the pinnacle of the day was our trip downtown in the afternoon, stretching into the evening. 48 Shads, let loose on downtown St. John's was bound to result in a great time, and it ...But w...

The 2009 Shad Valley Student Blog. Monday, July 20, 2009. Today was the day: project presentation day! For five hours, we heard each House Group present some of the most innovative and beneficial products and services. The magnitude of work that we had managed to accomplish in such a short time frame was truly impressive and awe-inspiring. As our judge so aptly stated, all the presentations were impeccable and definitely something to be proud of. Shad Valley has truly found the best and made them better.

The 2009 Shad Valley Student Blog. Monday, July 13, 2009. Yesterday, we climbed and conquered Mount Garabaldi; an 18 km hike. We departed and returned together as one, having surmounted and prevailed. Exhausted from the previous day’s adventure, we looked at each other with tired eyes, yet somehow we managed to still be ecstatic, having kept our hearts glowing. Following dinner, the swimming at the UBC Aquatic Centre was a well needed break, to stretch out our stiff muscles. The little things in between,...

The 2009 Shad Valley Student Blog. Saturday, July 18, 2009. Je me suis levée un peu plus tard que normalement, mais la ligne pour le petit-déjeuner était courte. Alors, quand je suis arrivée, beaucoup de Shads mangeaient encore. Nous avons discuté de notre prochaine activité et de la Nuit Multiculturelle. After breakfast, we made our way to the activity room, wondering what our second design challenge would be: CATAPULTS! Now for what we were all waiting for: the show. The entertainment included the ...

The 2009 Shad Valley Student Blog. Wednesday, July 15, 2009. Awakening to the seeping sun through the partially curtained window behind me, this morning delivered itself with an aura of excitement. Proving to be one of the nation’s capital’s warmest days thus far, the 6:30am alarm clock was accompanied already by the scurrying of feet through the fourth level halls of Stormont residences. Tonight, I recollect in a state of both astonishment and gratitude; astonished at the capabilities of a group of youn...
