It is now noon on Saturday with less than an hour to go until the end of camp. It has been an amazing year – one of the best ever – and we’re sad to see it come to a close. Here are some random videos from Friday’s events along with a few pictures. [imagebrowser id=33]

Another day. Another hot day. Another hot, rainless day. Another hot, rainless, AWESOME day! It’s amazing how the heat just cannot hold us down. Despite how tired some of us staff are, it has not seemed to affect the morale of camp at all, and in fact Thursday was probably the best day yet!

It’s Tuesday night at 11:26 PM and I’m finally able to start writing today’s blog post. This is half because of how awesome today was, and half because I was finally able to get all of the photos and video uploaded. It seems as the week goes on there is more to document and less time to do it!

This has already been a great year so far, and it’s only the end of the first night. It’s weird having over 100 people here – weird in a good way! There are so many new faces and so much anticipation for a great week. Here are some videos from the first night of camp. Make sure you watch Josh Clemens get a plate of whipped cream to the face. You can always count on Assistant Director Tim Barnes to head up registration and make both new and veteran campers alike feel welcome and wanted at camp. In this clip, … Continue reading
What an amazing year! Last night the prayer walk and reflection time afterwards was really something special. Lots of new campers as well as old veterans gave thanksgivings for camp. We had a light sprinkle but it dissipated as the night went on, and we had a roaring bonfire to keep us warm. Most of the campers gave thanks for all the work that the staff does to keep this camp rolling, and also gave thanks for the new friends they met and the ability to experience such a magical and holy week filled with true fellowship. We’re very sad to see camp come to a close, but all things must end, and really, every end is the beginning to something possibly even better than the last. As Luke read in the end of Lewis’ The Last Battle, we are moving further up and deeper in, thanks to all of the special things God has planned for us. We are very thankful to be able to see God here at camp in the hearts of all the young people and in nature all around us. Each year keeps getting better and better, as several campers pointed out last night, and we look forward to next year with great anticipation! Here are some photos from the past week:
