I think you are all caught up, so now I will just tell you about the joys of camplife! We had a dance party/ bingo night last night. I cannot dance! But we had lots of fun running around in circles, doing the conga, the twist, and so on. We were all so exhausted! My cabin girls were fast asleep in no time. I love it when they all fall asleep because every night when they fall asleep, all the cabin leaders sneak out and go to the lodge to have tons of fun! And to write.
Here is a typical camp day for my group:
1. Get up at an ungodly hour so I can wake girls up for showers.
2. Make sure they don't go back to sleep.
3. Walk down Mt. Olympus for breakfast. (The camp is set in a mountainy are, and it is a pretty steep hike to walk up and down.)
4. Go to a staff meeting while the girls clean the cabins. (It's a competition for cleanest cabin. My cabin won yesterday! And they had the best cabin today too, but they wanted to spread the winning around.)
5. Go to morning chapel. Keep the girls awake!
6. Begin morning rotations with a Bible study in the chapel.
7. Walk down the mountain to the fellowship hall to listen to Mrs. Denise (a missionary to Bahrain).
8. Walk back up the mountain to the education building to listen to Ms. Debbie (a missionary to Azerbaijan).
9. Lunch Time!!
10. Rest for a bit.
11. Swim for an hour.
12. Eat some snacks.
13. Go to crafts
14. Recreation
15. Dinner!
16. Evening chapel. Again, try to keep girls awake.
17. Night time fun. (This is some sort of night time activity. Last night was a dance party. Tonight was supposed to be an outdoor movie, but it rained.)
18. Lead a small devotion in the cabin
19. Get everyone who wants evening showers taken care of.
20. Lights out!
21. Wait for the snoring.
22. Grab my computer and sneak out.
23. Go write, eat snacks, and stay up way too late.
24. Sneak back into bed.
25. Sleep for about four hours.
26. Repeat.
It has been quite an interesting few days. But I have really enjoyed it!
In Him,
Brooke
