From Camp on Thursday!

Thursday!
By now we are all really getting to know each other and everyone is having a great time. Our small groups are really picking up steam and we talked about commitments that we have made to God.
Elementary Camp was able to go out to the ropes course today like Middle School and High School did earlier. This really allowed our small groups to get to know each other better. We also got to go folk dancing today which consists of a series of dances that have become a camp tradition. At the end of the day two, superheroes hosted a skate party that was interrupted by a villain. The campers were able to save the day by playing a fantastic game of superhero showdown.
Middle School attended workshops this morning. There are many workshops that the campers can attend and they get to choose the one that they think they would gain the most from. Workshops include learning about Invisible Children, how to treat your friends like Christ, and how to keep your faith interesting. Next was lunch and then rest hour. However, when we got to our cabins, it turns out they were locked by Old Man Jenkins so we had to have a movie party! After the movie party our cabins were unlocked and we were able to have rest hour.
High school got to participate in a service project this morning where they learned about the homeless in America and ways they can help. One of the ways introduced was to hand out bags with food and supplies to help them out. Also, there was an update with the band that was supposed to play on Friday. We were able to see what the band has been doing since breaking up. Then, at the end of the day, we had a pool party with the cool waterslide and some fun music.
