Until 2006, Thursday night has traditionally be reserved for '''Skit Night,''' where each group is tasked with writing and performing a skit that summarized their week's experiences. Skits ranged wildly in topic, style, duration, and of course, quality. They often parodied a movie, television show, or otherwise current event, but almost always relied heavily on satirizing other campers and especially the counselors. After all the groups have performed (more than one group combining to perform one skit has occurred), the counselors deliver their skit.
