Welcome Primary!

         Yesterday, we welcomed the little ones to Camp Capers. This is my favorite age group; their youth and love of life is so apparent that it rubs off onto the staff and reminds us that as we get older, we don't have to grow up. I get a lot of excitement due to the fact that many of these campers are first timers and they haven't experienced camp life yet. I can't wait to show them what they have been waiting for.

          After all of the campers moved in and made their beds, they changed into their swimsuits for the swim check. Afterwards, we had a fun swim that allowed campers to meet other campers and bond with their counselors. We continued the night with some pasta and breadsticks (yum!) and then finished it with some "ice-breaker" games and chapel. Some tears were shed by homesick campers during chapel, but once they saw their comforting counselor come to their side and place their arm around them, the tears vanished as they were calmly reminded that this place can be home too.

Love to all,
