July 14th – The Great Escape, by Kayla

we got to camp around 3:30 on monday. Once we got there every one got to play frisbee and have a water balloon fight. I got an on site hotel room with 2 other people.My schedule was like this:

 8:00  breakfest was some sort of bread toast, waffles, french toast, pancakes. There were also eggs bacon and yogurt 

9:00  was quiet time where we read the bible

10:00  was rec. During rec we went to field x, field rec, or lake rec. At field x you got covered in mud went down a giant slip’n’slide or played in foam. At field rec you play in giant inflatable donuts and knock other people down and do kick ball and dodge ball. Finally lake rec. You play games in the lake and hit each other with pool noodles.

(from heather) There was a person taking random videos each day and then stringing them into montages that were posted on you tube. Here is the Wednesday video.

 

12:00  is lunch with chicken, sloppy joe, and other meat. the one day they had hot dogs it was over cooked. There were also chips and pickles.

1:15  was afternoon worship with the band. this worship had drums and guitars. There was also a game show.

2:30  was small group. We went with the leader and have snacks and talk about the day.

3:30 is free time. you could play in the lake do a tournament and build a sand castle. I walked along the beach and saw this huge fish. The fish was pale gray, had 2 sets of fins and was at least 1 foot long. 

5:30  is dinner. I had a salad and bread because the dinners weren’t that good. 

7:30 was evening worship. During evening worship we saw videos and heard speeches. The speeches were by someone named ben glenn. ben is a lego expert, chalk artist and speaker. He was so fun!

10:30 was family time. During family time I got to be with every one from the church.

Finally 11:00 was lights out.

11:00 on friday was a party with pizza and soda. there was someone in a banana costume and a bunch of dancing.

All in all the great escape was really fun and was a great experience. Pictures later.

  1. Great job writing your own blog post, Kayla! I don’t think it would work very well if I let the boys write their own.

    I only watched part of the video, but it looks like an enormous amount of hilarious silliness and fun! Pizza and soda at 11PM sounds like a crazy time, did you get any sleep that night?!

    In less than four weeks, you will be in AZ! We can’t wait to see you all!

  2. Kayla, I agree with your Aunt Tiffanie, Very nicely written ! 🙂 🙂
    Sounds like you really had a great time, with a lot of good people met, and a lot of good things to look back on, and enjoy remembering.
