Busy weekend with lots going on!

Qwanoes was full once again this weekend with three different events going on. First we had our Young Adults Retreat happening which is in partnership with Ethos/Coquitlam Alliance Church. The buses rolled in on Friday night, we had fireworks, registration and then off to Club Coco for Q-Town. The worship is awesome and Johnny Mo is doing the speaking along with Sandy Colero from Peace Portal Church. We are talking all about unplugging from emptiness and plugging into what God truly wants for our lives. I ran into Johnny Mo on the field just a moment ago and he had this to say “I am really enjoying the Young Adults Retreat, it is so cool to see people unplugging from the culture of this world and connecting with God and each other. I love being back at Qwanoes!”

Saturday afternoon was pretty busy around here with a camp counselor seminar going on at the same time as our C.I.T. (Counselor In Training) Challenge Course Workshop. With so many Young Adults here enjoying the challenge course, there was plenty to do for our C.I.T.’s! I ran into Nicole and Jessica at the Sky Scraper who will be coming to C.I.T. #1 this summer and were being trained on how to send campers off the Sky Scraper.

Nicole had this to say, “I can’t wait for C.I.T. this summer! I am looking forward to learning all about how to be a counselor and supper, super, SUPER excited to meet more C.I.T. friends!”

Jessica had this to say, “I love the challenge course workshop and learning all the in’s and out’s of how all this challenge course stuff works.”

Back in Pacific Woods Lodge our new Head Counselors, Viktor and Anna were leading our Counselor Training Seminar.

Anna and Viktor - Summer 2011 Head Counselors!

I poked my head in a few times and enjoyed hearing all the different aspects of what makes a great camp counselor. Our new counselors can’t wait for summer and our campers to get here really soon!
