No Need for Talent Show

This is an opportunity for campers to present a particular skill or talent of theirs in front of the audience. This will boost their self- confidence and make them more comfortable of holding presentations. It's called "No Need for Talent Show" because you don't need a Talent to present anything.

Super Secret Surprise Game
