It was a great last full day for trailblazer 2. The campers woke up and headed off to breakfast to nourish themselves for the day, and they needed it, it was a day that required much energy. From breakfast they headed to cabin clean up, the final one, where some cabins got pretty creative so that they could win some points on the point board. Then we went to chapel where we found out that the skit character Matt had quite a unique power...you'll have to ask your camper to find out what it is though, we don't want to ruin the surprise too much. From chapel they had a little bit of personal devo time and then went to their skills class. Lunch was delicious deli sandwitches, and the campers headed off to rest up for the afternoon in the sun! The first thing was cabin time, where the girls cabins participated in activities around camp, and the boys cabin participated in their first, and very successful, MAN DAY for cabin time. The big game was tube mania and the campers got nice and muddy, which aided in cooling them off from the heat, but they enjoyed it greatly, and afterwards, there was an all camp swim in the lake to rinse off. The rest of the day was free time,a nd everywhere was busy with kids taking advantage of their last day of camp! Dinner was followed by CHAOS with egg man, and then there was a staff skit show. All of the staff participated in a funny, and maybe a little bit gross skit, which all of the campers enjoyed! It's always fun for them to see their Counselors/Cabin Pals up on stage having some fun. Straight from the skit show they went to the final chapel of the week. The speaker talked about having 'power under people' (or encouragement) versus power over (control) and how that positively impacts the totality of our lives. Then there was the end of the week bonfire and the campers got their chance to share with others what they learned through the week and how they plan on continuing in their new knoweldge when they go home. Afterwards it was off to bed for the final night of TB2.
