Camp Olympics & Luau

Tuesday was another hot and sticky day at St. John’s Camp 2012, and definitely a day full of excitement. The campers participated in several olympic “stations” that ranged from passing a hula-hoop over a line of them holding hands, to eating skittles topped with whipped cream using only their mouths, and trying hard to get NO whip cream on their faces. Very few accomplished this task… After olympics we all headed up to the pool for the annual Luau that Mr. Bob Abel and Mr. David Becker setup every year for the campers and staff. This year they were joined … Continue reading

Monday!

Today the younger campers heard lessons from their counselors, and the older campers heard from Fr. Joel Weir (St. John’s Camp Priest), and a panel of priests made up of Fr. Joel Weir, Fr. David Wey, and Fr. James Ellison. The campers were given the opportunity to ask whatever questions they wanted to of the priests. The discussion was very good and the campers asked some tough questions! Despite the heat, much sweaty fun was had, and the campers had a full day of prayer, singing, teaching, and an afternoon filled with arts and crafts, canoeing, swimming, and some prisoner’s … Continue reading

Adios Winter Camp 2010!

Welp, Winter Camp 2010 is officially over, much to the chagrin of its campers and staff. Thank you everyone for a wonderful retreat, and we hope to see you at Summer Camp 2011! Glory to Jesus Christ!

New Website Design… Again!

We promise this is the last time we’ll change out design on you. Until we decide to change it again. No really, this one’s a keeper since it’s a lot more modern and integrates well with Wordpress 3.0. It’s a lot easier for us to manage our posts and other content. We’ll be tinkering with the design for a while, so there might be a few pages under construction, but most of the features should work during this time. Make sure you explore all of the areas our new design has to offer, especially the MORE toggle panel on most of the pages that contains some ways to connect with us (like Facebook, Twitter, etc.), as well as the contact forms. If you notice anything out of the ordinary, feel free to comment on this post or let us know in the quick contact form (down in the footer). Hope you enjoy your time here!

New Blog Design & Twitter Presence!

We here at SJOCP value technomolology. That’s why we’re pleased to present our Twitter page to you: http://www.twitter.com/saintjohnscamp. With the blogging and the photos and the video and the Tweets it is almost like you are actually here with us at camp for the week. Speaking of blogging, look around at our shiny new blog design. It has way more features and a design face lift for your enjoyment. You can also see our latest Tweets over there on the right just in case you don’t feel like going all the way over to Twitter’s website.
