Camp 2008

Camp has been quite an experience this year. For those who don't know, they've decided to merge two camp staffs this year. So Beaver creek camp, and Pine Lake camp staffs are one staff running both camps. There are 2 kitchen and maintenance staffs, one for each camp, but the rest is all one staff. So the first week of the summer, half of the staff was at Beaver creek in Sask. for teen camp, and the other half was at Pine Lake for moms and tots. Then we all came together for Holiday 1, 2, 3 and teen camp at Pine Lake. Holiday camp one was a good camp, everyone was still trying to figure out the program, and get to know the staff they didn't already know too well, holiday camp 2 was a gongshow, as usual. It was that week that I almost quit, as well as a few other people. But we stuck it out, Holiday 3 was alright...the worst that really happened was lack of sleep....but its camp, of course thats gonna happen. And then teen camp....OH teen camp. I loved it. I just wish we had more time to minister to the campers. Teen camp only ran monday - thursday because we had to pack up and move on friday. I felt like the campers didn't get the time they deserved. But it was amazing nonetheless. The staff had fun, therefore the campers had fun. I like teen camp, because you get to hang out....and you don't get the stupid fights like "she called me a name". The campers are really good. Teen camp, for me, was by far the best so far. And now we're in saskatchewan. We have been here for a week, so we've done adventure camp 1 already, it was alright. I made a mistake and ate gluten last weekend, and then on monday....so I was sick and tired all week...but it was ok. Now, coming up is Adventure 2, then 3, then we're done. I can't believe its almost over. I can't believe I'm going to be living in Vancouver in less than a month! I'm so excited for it.

Anyways, I should get going.
