Sorry for the lapse in posting but as the end of a camp sesssion approaches things have a tendency to get a little hectic. Yesterday morning our first group of Sumac (3-5th grade campers) left after a week at camp. We were all sad to see them go! It was definitely a great bunch of kids.
Saturday afternoon the Cypresses (6-9th grade campers) participated in free choice all day. This morning we held a beautiful worship service in the outdoor chapel that was completely planned and lead by the campers.
and this afternoon we welcomed another group of Sumac campers with another campfire!
pictures will be posted tomorrow of the campfire at http://johnknoxranch.dotphoto.com
While the Sumac's had an opening campfire the Cypresses participated in our second annual paint challenge.
The object of the game was to prevent other teams (cabins) from getting paint on your white sheet, while you tried to smear paint all over theirs. The kids had a great time and by the end of the night we all looked like a Jackson Pollock painting!
The paint covered sheets are going to double as table cloths for our classical dinner this week where we have a candlelit dinner with classical music playing in the backround. I know I'm looking forward to it!
As the day winds down, let me just say again how amazing it is to have your children at camp!
again, photos will be posted tomorrow at http://johnknoxranch.dotphoto.com
Goodnight, Godbless
