We had a fun-filled four days of Winter Break Camp! We were blessed with two sunny, snow-free days and two snowy days. We played plenty of games: Giants, Wizards and Elves, Cat and Mouse, Hide and Seek, Get Jim!, Capture the Flag, hula-hoop-rolling, and tree climbing. When we had to escape the cold, indoor time included music-making, bankshot bowling, reptile bingo, shark bingo, bug dominoes, and crafts: paper making, snow globes, and pinecone owls. Of course, EATING is always a popular activity too.
The snow gods smiled on us for Thursday and Friday and brought us enough snow for some great sledding fun! We had plenty of sleds for everyone, and all-ages got into the fun at one time or another, despite the freezing temps (16 degrees on Friday! Brrrr). Luckily there was no wind and plenty of sunshine, so it was somehow bearable. Thanks for Jim for helping out with some of the photography, and thanks to everyone who came to play with us during Winter Camp! Enjoy the shots below, and PRAY FOR SNOW!
How many kids can fit on the ropes? ALL of them!!

Let the sledding begin! Three girls ready to go (followed by "bailing" and gales of giggles!)

Nice finish, boys! :)

The troops stay warm climbing up the hill.
