Camp Is Over

August 2nd, 2008

That’s it, we’re outta here. It was a very special week, and with the extra day the staff has been here for a full 7 days. We’re ready to go back out into the real world, but we’re really going to miss camp, as always.

Divine Liturgy just wrapped up and the campers are beginning to clean up the grounds, pack up their stuff, and prepare for the journey home. The campers will have a final counseling group and then Luke will give the final challenge, which usually consists of a wrap-up of the teachings at camp and how to tie them in with our every day lives.

It’s sad to see it come to an end, but there is always next year to look forward to. We will be distributing packets which contain photos, audio from teachings, and quotes from the prayer walk. We will also try to get some of our digital content up on the blog, so check back often.

Thanks to everyone who helped out this year. Thanks to all the amazing staff. Thanks to Luke for his unending hard work. Thanks to the campers for taking time out of their summer to come to camp. Thanks to parents for letting them come. And most importantly, thanks be to God for all things!

Afternoon Free Time

August 2nd, 2008

During the afternoon free time each day campers had plenty of activities available to them. Arts and crafts were held in the cafeteria, the basketball courts were open, the pool was available, the camp store was open for business, and campers could also just hang out or take a nap in their cabins. Here are some shots from various afternoons during free time this week.
