Jr. Olympics!

Anyone who has ever been to camp before knows the excitement that comes with Jr. Olympics. What I want to accomplish in this blog post is to go over all the events our campers participated in this morning and give you a run down of the obstacle course. We started out the morning with a 40-yard, then 80-yard dash….

Kitchen Staff!

To be honest, without them, we really wouldn’t have camp. Or at least we wouldn’t make it very long before collapsing. We truly couldn’t ask for a better kitchen staff than the one that we have this year. Here are the names of our kitchen staff: Kristie Maudlin Melissa Hosfield Betsy Benson Mary Beth Maudlin Sonya McCauley Rachel Lanius Natalie…

Best one yet

This morning we started out with Fried Rademacher leading us all in a flagpole devotional on keeping good principles. Then we went to eat what has to be the BEST breakfast we have had this week. The campers all enjoyed French toast, eggs, and bacon. Thank you kitchen staff! Yum!

After a day filled with delicious food, sports, Bible study, hilarious skits, and time well spent with friends, the campers are headed to bed. After today, it’s safe to say that most campers are exhausted and ready for sleep in preparation of Jr. Olympics tomorrow. So, from MSC Jr. Week to you, we wish you a big goodnight and…

Tuesday night skits

Tonight we once again had the pleasure of enjoying a few skits presented by our staff.  We started out with Danny Elkins performing a “midget Danny” skit in which he was trying to decide what he wanted to do for a job. In the end, he chose that he didn’t like anything better than being a team captain at…

Tonight we have Yellow in third, Royal Blue in second, and Purple in first. Currently it’s looking like Purple is the team to beat, but anyone who has been to MSC knows…

Tuesday night dinner

Well, I’m here to assure you that you will NEVER hear an MSC camper tell you that they hate the food. It’s simply an impossibility. Tonight we had the pleasure of eating hamburgers, corn on the cob, and baked potatoes. Thank you kitchen staff! I’d also like to give a special shout out to Justin Weldon (see picture) and…

Afternoon activities on Tuesday

This afternoon, we had a little different activity than yesterday: we had each team split up and fill out Bible trivia questions during our first activity period. Then the campers went and participated in crafts.

Quote of the day

While in the mess hall watching the campers play Bible trivia, I noticed that a lot of them were stumped on who touched the ark of the covenant and died.
