Session 1 Comes to a Close!

07/10/2014

Things are happening quickly around camp as the mini trips arrived home Wednesday afternoon safely and glowing with stories! Each trip preformed a skit about their before we announced the Bone Head award recipient and the U Rock award recipient. A ceremony where we celebrate our failures/short comings and rejoice in the learning process that allows us to grow and move forward, via theatrical reenactment. See photos of the trips on smugmug and some here below.

This morning Adventure Village arose to flag raising and a delicious breakfast. Throughout the day we took in our last day at camp with some smaller activities like Ministry of Silly Walks, the Leap of Faith, and Archery before heading back to the village to clean up and pack up. Before dinner, in true summer camp fashion we spoiled our appitites with ice cream!

Closing ceremony was held in the village, tears were shed.

Happy Trails,
