First we had chapel which was great I am part of the worship team and this week they had me on piano. I have never performed in front of peers before so I was super nervous, but as soon as everyone filed in, a peace came over me as I realized that no one cared about how well I played because it was for God not them. So worship was an incredible experience :)
Then directly after we went into Oakhurst to buy more forgotten things for Trek and we also went thirsting :) It was $5 per paper bag you filled (with summer clothes) and I found a brand new/unopened copy of Pinocchio for $2 so of course I had to buy it :)
After lunch we went down to the lake to cool off. The water felt amazing, and the view wasn't so bad either. I was with my two roommates (Christa and Emily) and Aubrey. While we were down there we went kayaking which was amazing. The only other place I have kayaked was at Forest Home and the lake there is tiny so to have so much space to go was great! I can't wait to go night kayaking! :)
When we went back to camp we had an event called "Race Through Neverland" (in case you didn't know, Peter Pan is kind of our theme up here this semester). This race had various stages
Pre) dress up to match your team name
1) Archery (team won)
2) Cinnamon Challenge (I did) (TERRIBLE) (team won)
3) Catching Cheerios in whipped cream on your face (team won)
4) Cereal Eating and Soda Chugging contest (team won)
5)Bike Race (I did)
6)Pass a lifesaver with toothpicks in your mouth (everyone did) (team tied)
7) three legged race (step-step-summersault)
8) egg toss (everyone did)
9)Toilet paper bride (team won)
Hopefully I will be able to post pictures of each of these stages in a way to explain what they are. Otherwise just ask :)
It was a ton of fun though, our student leaders up here are genius!
Then to finish the day we watched Peter Pan on the big screen outside in the amphitheater.
Such a great way to de-stress from the week :)
