Tuesday morning started like any other morning, except for the sirens blaring, and cops and robbers running through cabins frantically waking up campers.
Bastille Day is the day at Buck's Rock where CIT's (Counsellors in Training) get their chance to cause some mayhem.
These photos from the morning give just a small taste of what to expect during this crazy day.
