"Grades 7-12 escaped to the Wilds Christian Camp from February 24-26, 2009. For three days they rode the giant swing, hiked to beautiful waterfalls, stuffed their faces with good food, drank Cool Beans beverages, shot rifles at the rifle range, swung across the creek, and played many games: basketball, Big Ball volleyball, Cat in the Hat, miniature golf, regular (and human) foosball, air hockey, and “Gazeeball.” They generally had a blast while getting to know one another better. The Wilds’ fun time was its usual great mixture of bluegrass music and slapstick. Ask Mr. Bartlett about his level of coordination.
"In addition, they heard excellent messages from Matt Herbster and Willie Partin about recognizing the characteristics of a fool, understanding life’s difficulties in the light of God’s goodness, overcoming temptation, knowing Christ, and being a Daniel in today’s lion’s den of oppression. Good decisions were made, and the preaching brought the students and sponsors close to the Lord.
"The Wilds was a great experience, and the students are ready to give up classes any time for a trip back to camp!"
A few more pictures:
Blanket volleyball. A huge tarp keeps each team from knowing where exactly the nerf ball is coming down on their side. Loads of fun and a great indoor game for a cold or rainy day.
More fun time silliness.
