Tuesday of Specialty Camp

  Today was such a great day! We began the day with polar bear plunge and then it was time for breakfast (scrambled eggs and bacon).  Morning chapel was next(charity was the ‘C’ of the day) and then two hours of cabin activities. It was raining during breakfast but by the time chapel was over the rain had cleared and we were ready for activities! Cabins were canoeing playing sports working on arts and crafts as well as cooking popcorn in tin cans over the fire. 

At CYC the Cabin Spirit Award is handed out at the end of the week to the cabin that uses the 5 Cs has good sportsmanship cheers for each other (and other teams) and has overall great spirit. Based on today the cabins are pretty even because EVERYONE was singing constantly (you could probably hear us across the lake). It was awesome to see so much excitement and camp cheer!

Lunch was hot ham and cheese and chicken noodle soup and then we headed to a much needed rest time! 

This afternoon was gorgeous sunny and a perfect day for being at camp! The art group was busy making nail art (hammering nails into a board into a design and then wrapping sting to make intricate designs) campfire cooking was making donuts over the fire (cinnamon sugary goodness!) and drama was getting their act ready for the talent show. Archery was aiming the dancers were dancing and canoers were canoeing! It was a busy day!

Dinner was tacos and brownies!

Cabin free time after dinner gave cabins a chance to perfect their talent show acts skip rocks at the beach make some craft projects play soccer and relax after a long day. After that it was time to raise the roof in praise and worship- singing so loud you could probably hear us across the lake! 

Our spirit was so great and our voices were warmed up so it made sense to head down to the Friendship Circle for a campfire! We sang tons of songs each cabin performed their cabin cheer we did the traditional CYC cheer and then we made some yummy s’mores!

It was a great day at camp!! 

"What camp means to me is learning about God, making friends and having fun. But the most important thing is being yourself. We have lots of fun at camp. The counselors are great, the friends are nice, the themes are awesome, and the games rule! When I grow too old to come to camp I want to be a camp counselor, but for now, I will enjoy the fun at camp. See you this year!" - Josh
