Chico Camper Songs

Gilly, gilly, gilly, gilly
Wash, wash, wash, wash,
We are the Chico girls.
Gilly, gilly, gilly, gilly
Wash, wash, wash, wash,
We are the Chico girls.
Hail, Indian Nation
We bring you salutation
Best hut in the nation
And our hearts go Oompa-pa
Oompa-pa, Oompa oompa oompa-pa.

Bang! Bang! Choo-choo train,
Come on Chicos, do you thing!
Get it, get it, get it, get it.
Got it, got it, got it, got it.
Unh, and let it roll!
Unh, and let it roll!

(Repeat Three times)

There is a hut on top of the hill,
And Chico is its name-o.
C-H-I-C-O, C-H-I-C-O, C-H-I-C-O,
And Chico is its name-o.

(Repeat each time dropping a letter
in 3rd line and clapping in its place)

We got a hut that's super bad,
We got a hut you wish you had.
We got a hut that's out of sight,
We got a hut that's Dy-no-mite!!
Now dig on that!

(Clap 3 times)

I'd rather be a Chico girl than a multi-multi millionaire.
I'd rather be a Chico girl than sit in a president's chair.
I'm just as happy as I can be.
If you don't believe it come and see.
I'd rather be a Chico girl than a multi-multi-multi-multi-multi-multi-multi-millionaire.

Chicos, Chicos, are you ready?
Ready!
Chicos, Chicos, are you ready?
Ready!
Chicos, Chicos, are you ready?
Ready!
Boogie, boogie, boogie, a-boogie down.
Boogie, boogie, boogie, a-boogie down.

Chic-chic, bang bang
Look at the Chicos do their thing.
They're up, they're down.
Look at the Chicos all around.
Gonna' stomp those other huts in the ground.
Chic-chic, bang, bang.

Junior Camp

Chicos sing:

Oh, do you know the junior camp,
the jolly camp, the happy camp,
Oh, do you know the junior camp,
The camp across the creek.

Main side sings:

Oh, yes we know the junior camp,
the jolly camp, the happy camp,
Oh, yes we know the junior camp,
The camp across the creek.

Chicos scream:

Campo - Chico!

Winnataska is the Place to Be

Winnataska is the place to be,
'Cause that's where I met you and
That's where you met me!
Friendship is the key to
Laughter and all the memories that you gave me.
If there's one place we know
Where memories grow, it's Chico.
We've found love here
And friends who care
And happiness that keeps us smiling.
Horseback and swimming are the best.
We're always on the go,
And never get to rest.
Sometimes we are pests, but
Our leaders love us,
Yes, they really, really love us.
If there's one place we know
Where memories grow, it's Chico.
We've found love here
And friends who care
And happiness that keeps us smiling.
Chico, Chico, Chico!

Life with the Chicos

At Winnataska there's a place we really love.
And Chico's it's name.
Painted walls and spider webs and squeaky doors,
all add to its fame,
Noting but bugs pass through this place,
ain't nothing like home.
Life with the Chicos, Life with the Chicos
Life with the Chicos is a blast.
The girls up there are really great we love them all.
We'll never forget
The times we spent the laughter share we'll always keep,
We'll always hold dear,
With ___ and ___ (director's first names), no shower curtains,
Life with the Chicos, is a blast.
(Although the leaders will never last)
Life with the Chicos, Life with the Chicos
Life with the Chicos is a blast.

Cookie Monster

The Cookie Monster says that the Chico's are
" The Great Big Cookies at the top of the jar."
The Cookie Monster says that the other huts are
" The Little Bitty Crumbs at the bottom of the jar."

Chico's Song

1st Girls, 1999
Irene Gilmore

We have a smile on our face.
Cause we've found this great place.
We are Chicos and we love you Winnataska.

We are young, we are small.
Your traditions help us stand tall.
We are Chicos and we love you Winnataska.

We are learning every day.
Serving others is the best way.
We are Chicos and we love you Winnataska.

We'll come back through the years.
Not believing it started here.
We are Chicos, we're your friends Winnataska.
