Best Week Ever 2013 Day 3

Tuesday began with a splash as we played a bunch of water games after breakfast. Games included flinging water balloons, making and racing boats out of foil, bailing a raft (because nothing tires out some kiddos better than moving 100s of gallons of water.  The final game in the set was sure to take care of any dry spots the kids may have had.  The staff and volunteers disposed of the extra water balloons, water squirters and other water delivering mediums by playing a game of water tag with the kids.

In the afternoon, there was a group that went rafting, and other that swam, while yet another went hiking on Sawmill creek.  Many campers loved the rock painting station and will come home with some new and totally organic souvenirs.

Worship in the evening was great.  Pastor John talked about the story of Ruth and Naomi and the importance of keeping the promises we make even when it is really hard.

The day ended with a dance party and smores.  Our time to sleep under the stars was cut short by a stone that rolled in.
