Rock Climbing

Today the campers had the opportunity to do some major rock climbing.  Here is the "rock" they climbed. 
They said it was an awesome experience!

Michael and David said they are so tall they made it up the mountain in 5 strides!  :-)
one of the staffers said our campers were really brave, even when they had to repel!

Mountain Boarding!?!

boarding down the path...trying not to wipe out!

Cameron, one of the staff, explaining to the kids how to fall safely and how to wear the safety gear!  Very importaint when you are riding on an oversized skateboard with big wheels down the mountain path!

Alex and Austin had a good time mountain boarding.

Team Scoring Time

At the end of dinner time the kids enjoy an evening news style presentation for team scoring.  They are shown video and pictures of themselves doing various activities throughout the day as well as funny video clips the staff puts together. 

At the end of team scoring today the staff passed out camper mail.  But....in order to retrieve your mail you had to "kiss that moose!" When your name was called the entire group yelled "kiss that moose" and the pics below explain the rest...




The Serious Side of Camp



The Services this week have been great. The music has been very well done -- it is both beautiful and God honoring. The messages by Pastor David Brock have been challenging the teens to live by faith which is "belief in action" and to evaluate their lives to be sure they are living for God. Last night he preached a powerful gospel message. Pastor Brock is an engaging speaker and he powerfully applies God's word to the teens.

Wednesday

Sorry to say I don't have that many pics to post today because we forgot to charge the camera and it died on us. Pastor Ryan is hoping to get a few more pics tonight on his phone, so hopefully I will have a few more then. Today in the mountains it was a bit foggy and crisp enough to wear a sweater--perfect! The kids have enjoyed great preaching, tasty food, and a hike up the mountain (if they chose to hike).
they served special desserts tonight: cotton candy, frozen lemonades, or funnel fries.  2 of these girls chose cotton candy!

Alex really enjoyed his cotton candy!
playing games with mountain views all around you! that's camp!

free time fun
