Camp ~ Lakeview Christian Camp

Brett enjoyed two camp sessions this year. He first went to High School Camp in the cabins at Lakeview Christian Camp at Webster (formerly known as, PECUSA). He was there from Sunday afternoon to Friday afternoon. He did a lot of bible studying and made a lot of new friends for Facebook and texting. He was the only boy from Plainville to go. The last day they made a fort to sleep in that night. His "families" fort was so cozy that he slept through the "raid" in the middle of the night. The weather was hot and then one day of cold and he didn't have a jacket.

Then Jake went to Intermediate Camp, 5th and 6th graders. Again, from Sunday afternoon to Friday afternoon. Brett's week didn't seem long because we were busy going to Jake's ballgames, etc. But...Jake's week seemed to drag by. Jake wasn't around buggin' me ;-) He played capture the flag with a twist. Each player had a balloon on their back, you captured enemies by popping their balloons. "Biting the balloons gives you rabies!" lol I believe this is what one of the counselors told them so they would stop biting eachother's balloons. Jake won points for his "Company" by memorizing the books of the New Testiment.

Then...Brett went to Boondockers Camp for the third year. This camp they pitch tents and roughed it a little. They had to cook 2 of the meals the rest of the meals were brought out to them. They both love the food the camp provides. This camp was from Sunday to Wednesday, which as a blessing because this was the week we began firework sales. (That'll be another post.) This time a lot of Plainville kids went ~ they were having a blast before the bus pulled away from the church in Plainville. The weather was hot but no storms this year. Last year one night it rained 6 inches.
