Greetings from Camp Fort Bluff!
Camp began this past Saturday evening after sunset with our staff orientation. We have one of our smaller staffs this year, with just 37, but they’ve been one of our more lively groups. On Sunday afternoon 67 campers arrived with eager anticipation to get things started. After our camper orientation, Mr. Winner regaled us all with some mixer games that went over really well, and then we all gathered around the campfire by the pond for some tasty s’mores (kosher marshmallows, of course)!
This morning we all awoke to some beautiful weather, sunny and around 70 degrees—although by noon, the temperatures were in the mid-80s. The weather forecast is calling for some mid-week pop-up showers, but they shouldn’t be anything that will dampen our spirits.
The first Compass Check and Christian Living classes were very well received and got us all thinking about this year’s camp theme. All of us here thank you for your prayers for a safe, healthy and spiritual camp, and ask that you continue those prayers.
