Camp Olympics & Luau

Despite the threat of severe weather in the afternoon, the clouds lifted and the sun came out, followed by a cooling breeze just in time for this year’s Camp Olympics.  Earlier in the day, all of the Jr. High Girls had the chance to climb the challenge tower and go down the zip line.
