Outside the main office, which housed the quarters for the teachers, the oracle, and the other staff, a raucous carnival was taking place. From the far end of the Camp's playing field, to the shores of the camp's beach, all manner of festivities were taking place. Though the large field at the most westerly point of camp was closed, as Capture the flag had not yet started, the satyrs and dryads were busily setting the playing field for the upcoming game. Further east, and at the northern border, was the camp's stables. Immediately south of the stables, was a racing track and coliseum, built to house events and games of all kinds. Further east, in the direct center of camp, lay the Dining Pavilion and kitchen. South of the pavilion was the camp store as well was the main office for camp. Further east and to the north of the dining pavilion, lay the central field. Here campers could practice and home their skills, participate in all manner of scheduled camp activities and classes, and, currently, was the central location of all the games for the festival. This center field was often modified to house other events and activities, such as dodgeball or debates, and was the flattest, most well groomed field in all of camp. To the south of the central field lay the Cabin Circle, wth Zeus and Kronos Cabins at the head, the cabins for Divine Fathers were all on the right, and the Divine Mothers all on the left. Each cabin was split into boys and girls dorms, and each had plenty of space to fit as many as up to thirty children. At each of the four cardinal direction, placed strategically on the inside of the cabin circle, were a set of bathrooms and showers, each split into both genders, and capable of housing up to ten occupants on either side at once. Finally, at the furthest east of camp, lay the beach, where campers could swim, surf, sail, canoe, and row during their free time, or during scheduled events and classes.
As mentioned previously, to celebrate the first successful week at Camp, Amphytriton and the other staffers, were throwing a huge festival, complete with a buffet and as many games and activities as a young halfblood could want. So what are you waiting for? Your friends are all there? Join the party!

Wallace, as excited as he was, couldn't keep himself contained for too long. He took one look at the rows of games, food, and activity booths and just about lost it. He sprinted to the nearest one, a ring toss, and began to play. Only a few moments later, Wallace was seen blatantly cheating at ski-ball by enlisting the aid of one of the smaller campers, who Wallace had instructed to catch the balls that he rolled up the ramp and put them into the hole worth the most points. Once the pair had won the biggest prize, a giant stuffed gorilla toy, Wallace handed the small boy the gift and ran off to the next booth, spreading smiles and concerned sighs wherever he went. After a good hour or so of playing, Wallace finally became hungry. He'd played all the games and given away all his prizes to kids who couldn't win any for themselves, and it had made him very, VERY hungry. He made his way over to the dining pavilion and, after waiting patiently in line, pulled himself a massive plate of barbecue classics to gorge himself on. Wallace ate hamburgers, hot dogs, potato salad, chips, fruit, soda pop, and an ice cream sandwich, but not before making a sizable offering to the gods at the ever-burning brazier. Finally sated, Wallace made his way back to the festival, hoping to spend some time with his friends, when who should he happen upon but Luke and Minna. Having spotted them from a bit of a distance, he waved wildly, jogging over to the pair and giving them each a big smile. "Hey guys!" He said, happily, and excited to see them. "How're you today? Great shindig, eh?"
