Junior High #1 is going great!!! The campers hit the ground running on Saturday with many coming by car and our biggest group ever coming over by ferry!

Before we knew it the campers were on the registration deck, getting their pictures taken, meeting their camp counselor, doing swim tests, doing tricks on the skateboard park, in Club Coco, playing carpetball and moving into cabins! The Squirrel was in the qrok tower playing the new OUT OF THIS WORLD theme song and it was summer once again at Qwanoes!

Every day has been filled with adventure, friends & discovery! There is so much going on all over Qwanoes right now as I write this blog post. I just got back from Qwanoes Beach and boy oh boy that is the place to be on a hot day like this! The campers are loving Castaway Castle & the whole Aqua Park. As I was heading up the stairs I saw all three boats pulling campers behind them, what fun! I also saw a group of campers enjoying “Beach Discovery”, it was really cool to see the campers touching and holding a REALLY, REALLY BIG star fish!

I just ran into Stevie-G and he had this to say about the week, “This week is so cool! And I’m not meaning the temperature – it was crazy today with water flying everywhere, campers were all soaked with water and having a blast on our first really hot summer day!! I love wide eyed and liquified!”

The GONG just went! That means it’s time to head to the dining hall for a tasty meal together. The evenings are such a great time together as we head into Q-Town for an awesome time watching QTV, singing with the Quixotic band and listening to our camp speaker for the week, Randy Carter.  Randy really gets everyones attention with his funny stories and powerful lessons about life & Jesus. We are all learning and growing so much together and having fun all at the same time!

Two more days left of Junior High #1 – it’s going to be awesome!
