Little Kids Camp



It is that time again for church camp! We left Sunday with fifty 3rd thru 6th graders. This was Abigail's first year as a camper. She was so excited. Sam, our youth minister, drove the bus with the trailer and I drove the fourteen passenger van.



Camp was held at Beavers Bend State Park. It was so very pretty, rolling hills, trees, rivers, and wildlife! Our city kids played horse shoes, and ping pong. They competed in everything from three on three basketball to bubble gum blowing.



In the morning campers participated in a Bible Bowl competition. Afternoons included swimming the the river, two mile hikes and visits to the Nature Center.
.
It was an amazing week. I love camp with the kids! Abigail managed to twist her ankle and spent a few days on crutches, but is perfectly fine now! Her cabin took 2nd place in the Bible Bowl competition, She took 2nd place in the cabin bubble gum blowing contest and was given the Excellence Award for, 'Seeker - Hungry for God.'
