Music Monday! Button Factory

How fitting, 2013 counselor Joe sings Button Factory at Closing Campfire! Because... "Hi, his name is Joe, and he works in a button factory."

First Session - Button Factory

Music Monday! Singing in the Rain

We had a very rainy start to the month of May, so hopefully listening to Fourth Session sing "Singing in the Rain" at Closing Campfire will chase the rain away.

4th Session - Singing in the Rain

Music Monday! Wisconsin Milk

Well if this isn't one of the catchiest songs of all time... Claire leads First Session in Wisconsin Milk at Opening Campfire!

Wisconsin Milk - 1st Session

FOLEY FLASHMOB FRIDAY!

Instead of Music Monday this week, we present to you FOLEY FLASHMOB FRIDAY! The girls from First Session know what we're talking about. For everyone that wasn't around - here's what went down for Foley's Flashmob! 

1st Session Flashmob

Music Monday! Herman the Worm

It all started one day when we were just sitting on our fence post chewing our bubble gum...

Listen to our 4th Session campers and counselors sing Herman the Worm at Closing Campfire. Take notice of Hermann's, 2013 and 2014 counselor, Oscar-worthy performance as Herman the Worm.

Herman the Worm - 4th Session

Music Monday! Boom De Yada

Last Thursday we celebrated the First Day of Spring (otherwise known as the Spring Equinox)! What better way to celebrate that than with a a song about loving mountains, rolling hills and daffodils. Hear our First Session Campers sing I Love the Mountains (Boom De Yada) lead by counselor, Michael D.

Boom De Yada - 1st Session

Music Monday! Rattlin' Bog

Camp Foley's 3rd/4th Session CITs sang an all-time camp favorite, "Rattlin' Bog" during 4th Session's Opening Campfire. (In case you haven't guessed - Rattlin' Bog gave us the idea to name this blog the, "Rattlin" Blog!")

Rattlin' Bog - 4th Session

Music Monday! Baby Shark

During First Session's Closing Campfire, Eric lead the campers and staff in singing "Baby Shark." Just try not to sing along with the do-do do do do-do's. 

Baby Shark - 1st Session 

Music Monday! 3 Bears

One of the very last songs we sang in 2013 was 3 Bears. It's an old one that doesn't get sung at camp too often these days. But it is definitely a good one! Kylie lead the song at 4th Session Closing Campfire and adapted it to be somewhat of a "repeat after me song"!

4th Session - 3 Bears

Music Monday! Flea Fly

We stumbled upon a video of Alum Herb Richardson's son, Herbie, singing along to Flea Fly in the car. Little did we know, Herb's nieces and nephews provided singalong versions of Flea Fly to Herbie to practice the correct words. Who are these fantastic nieces and nephews? The Munkebys: Jack, Sam, Joe and Mae! (Their mom, Lisa, is Herb's sister.)

What better way to celebrate Music Monday than with the Munkebys and the Richardsons!

The original video of Herbie:

We couldn't love this more! Is there a video of you singing a camp song floating around the internet? Share it with us! Send us think at Fun@CampFoley.com!

Music Monday! LIT Raps

We love our LITs for so many reasons. One of those reasons is the fantastic LIT Raps our 1st and 3rd Session LITs composed this summer. Take a listen: 

1st Session - LIT Rap

2nd Session - LIT Rap

Music Monday! Taps

We find it fitting to conclude 2013 in the same way that we conclude every campfire - with Taps. We hope that everyone had an amazing year and that 2014 will be just as amazing for all! Sing along with our First Session campers as they sing Taps at Closing Campfire. 

1st Session - Taps

Music Monday! Bananas

What don't Bananas have? LIPS! Bananas have no lips! Listen to First Session campers sing "Bananas" lead by Jordan at Opening Campfire. It's one of the very first songs we sang at camp in 2013!

1st Session - Bananas

Music Monday! Cups

"Rockapella" was a 6th period activity that was offered during First Session. Check out the awesome campers perform "Cups" by Anna Kendrick during the Final Banquet events!

Music Monday! Damper

3rd and 4th Session CITs lead the entire camp in "Damper" for 4th Session Closing Campfire at the beach. It's always a funny song when someone messes up...

Courtney and Molly lead the campers in a classic during 3rd Session Closing Campfire!

3rd Session - Down By the Bay

Music Monday! Home

We're going to slow it down a bit this week because it's the week of Thanksgiving. One thing we're always thankful for is camp and anyone who has ever considered Foley their summer home. We thought 1st Session's Closing Campfire rendition of "Home" by Phillip Phillips would be appropriate this week.. Lead by Molly McGuire and Claire Revord on guitar.

1st Session - Home
