Camp Athens’ numbers are running at 61 campers and 56 staff members, and all is going well. We have two campers from the U.K., who have traveled across the pond to join us. We’re also blessed with five from Chile and one from Alaska. 

Temperatures have exceeded 100 degrees Fahrenheit every day so far, but our only strenuous outdoor activity is speedaway. In fact, most activities—with the exception of archery, swimming, lakefront and speedaway—are held indoors. 

The campers appear to be very engaged and working well together. I’ve been very impressed with the examples of both staff and campers. Tonight is our first all-camp dance. Thankfully, they’ll all have about an hour to clean up before the dance!

We appreciate your prayers for everyone’s safety and that God will bless the efforts of both campers and staff and continue to provide us with an atmosphere of peace and harmony.
