Our third week starts the kids camp with the 14-18 year old group. Week four has the 6-10 year old. Then week five, 11-13 year old. Week six is a Day Camp sponsored by a local church, kids 6-12 years old. That week is when we get a slight rest as that camp runs from 8:30 - 5 pm each day, no overnight guests.
Then the Family Camps in weeks 7, 8 & 9. Each of these camps starts Sunday @ 2 pm and run thru Saturday @ 10 am. With a morning & evening teaching time, multiple swimming pool times, climbing wall, archery, volleyball, mini-golf, basketball, soccer, tennis & evening campfires, the guest go home exhausted each week.
Our staff is also weary by the end. We have 4 full time adult staff, then we have young people who come for 3 weeks at a time, (a block) and stay at the camp facilities. Some of the kids stayed all summer long. It is a good time as we all work together to make the camp run smoothly.
We know of several campers who made a declaration to follow Jesus and many others who learned more about Him and asked questions. To me, that is what is really important, getting to know Jesus!!
Know Jesus, Know Peace!
No Jesus, No Peace!
Now it's time for me to rest a bit, but coming in 1 week AWANA starts up again. Then Tuesday night Bible Studies resume and this year I am running a "Alpha" course for 7 weeks on Sunday evenings. For details go to www.alphacanada.org. Plus hunting season starts October 1st. Yeah, a busy Fall.
