It was a excellent friday for Junior High 2. It was beautiful weather, the sun was out, and the temperature was just right to enjoy all of the sweet activies that Camp has to offer. The morning went along swimmingly with the usual scedule and thens ome skills time. After lunch was KBAR and the campers got stoked for the PACK ATTACK! The campers were SOOO excited and into their team spirit. At lunch all of the teams had a cheer show down to show off the sweet cheers their packs had come up with. The blue team ended up winning the Pack Attack, but all of the campers had an awesome time participating. The Big game of the day was guerilla Warfare, the campers loved that game as they got to run around in the woods looking for the general, and trying not to get caught by the staff members. THe reat of the afternoon was free time followed by dinner then CHAOS> Cabin time was the evening activity, and the campers had so much fun hanging out with their cabins for the last time before the week was over. Talking about the week and all of the fun stuff that they did. Then it was chapel and the closing bonfire where the campers had the opportunity to share what sorts of things they learned about this week. Afterwards, it was off to cabins for cabin devos and lights out so that they could get a good rest for the journey home tomorrow.

It was a typically awesome Junior High Morning with breakfast, cabin clean up, chapel and personal devos. The physical activity for the morning was the final offical pack play. The campers assigned themselves to their stations for the pack attack tomorrow, perfected their cheers, and just had a great time hanging out. Lunch was supposed to be at the beach, but that was unable to happen because of a random dounpour of rain...But there was still an incredible beach style let in at the dinning hall. It rained during most of KBAR but then the sky cleared up just for the beach bash at 2:00. Therefore, the beach bash was a smashing success, as the campers enjoyed playing some fun water games, and having the opportunity to cover their counselors in paint. The rest of the afternoon was free time. It was a little bit longer free time than normal, but the campers had a blast getting to do whatever they wanted! Dinner followed, and then some CHAOS with a sweet new mail call game. Afterwards was connect time and then chapel. In Chapel the cameprs got to suit up the speaker and make her into a super hero. The night game was Go for the Gusto, which the campers enjoyed greatly, and then they headed towards the drama to learn about the revolutionary Love of Jesus Christ.

The morning went along as camp mornings usually do. There was a little bit of rain right before lunch so they had to move the outdoor skills times inside, but the campers still had a blast doing inside activities. Then after lunch God cleared up the sky for pack play and the big game which was SOCK O, and that went incredibly well. The rest of the afternoon was free time,a nd God continued to hold off the rain, which was great. Dinner was followed by a CPBC style Deal or no deal CHAOS. From there was connect then the sweetest evening game called Find the Fire...oh yes, it was great. Then it was chapel/U Turn Night. The campers learned about how Death + Jesus = life...and if we choose to live for him and let him be thel aeders of our lives that he will give us a life better than we could even begin to imagine.

It was a great full day to start off with for Junior High two. After the morning activities, which included chapel and a great skit, as well as cabin time, they went onwards to lunch. For an hour after lunch they just had some Kick Backa nd Relax time, and got energized for the events of the afternoon. The first even was pack play, which is new this summer. How it works is the cabins are split up into five groups of mixed boys and girls cabins, and they become packs and they spend time together each day hanging out and having some fun doing all the great activites there are to do here at camp. The game of the afternoon was Whip N' Strip. It was a pretty awesome game which everybody got into. However, because of this, it was a tie game, but that's not what is important, the main thing is that everybody LOVED it. The rest of the afternoon was free time, and it was super fun for the campers to have the first chance of the week to go and do wahtever they wanted to. By the end of the two hour free time everybody was ready for some dinner. During Mail Call/CHAOS the campers got to play Honey Face and Egg Man...and the original egg man, the camp legend himself was there. From there they went to a time called connect, which is also new to the summer. It's just a little bit of down time when the campers get to chill for a while between dinner and the next activity. Then it was chapel, where we learned about sin and how it effects our lives, and then the final activity of the night was fugitive. It was quite the game with some fugitives that you wouldn't expect, like Indiana Jones, Henry Jones and Shorty, as well as Little Red Riding Hood and Granny, and Scooby Doo! Yup, some pretty famous people showed up for our game of fugitive. Then it was off to the cabins for devotions, a time tor eflect on the Day and learn more about God, and then off to bed to rest up for the next day.

Friday Senior High 2

It was a great last day for senior high two. The campers got the chance to sleep in untill brunch which began at 10:00 am. They loved the fact that they got to get some extra rest. The rest of the morning went on as usual, cabin clean up, chapel, practices, and Personal devotions. Then at 2:00 they had a snack/lunch. The remainder of the afternoon was free time. It was a pretty relaxed day for the campers. Then a little before six the whole camp got ready for the senior high banquet, which is quite the classy affair. The campers enjoyed their meal very much. Desert ended up being served in the gym, because of severe weather, but the campers made the best of it. Once the warnings expired we headed off to the chapel for the talent show and Chapel. In chapel the speaker told about how we may think people interrupt our lives, but really God may be putting them there as an opportunity to tell them about Jesus...and we need to keep aware and be glad for those opportunities. From chapel we went to an inside bonfire, and then it was off to bed so they could be well rested to come home the next day.

Yeah Senior High 1! The day started out with a tasty breakfast...it was breakfast dogs, which is quite popular among the senior highers. Cabin clean up and chapel were as usual, and then they split off into four groups for Practices, which is a time to learn about different things we should learn how to practice (hence the name) as followers of Jesus Christ. Testimony, forgiveness and community are a few of the practices that they learn about. After that was some personal devo time to relfect on the practices and just spend some time alone with God. Cabin time was the last activity of the day and then lunch followed by a short KBAR because WHIP N' STRIP was the big game of the day! It was an intense game, but sooo much fun. Free time was the rest of the afternoon. Dinner was accompained by an egg man mail call, and then it was Poweder Puff time. Each senior high, the staff females take on the camper females in a game of football...the game gets hard core, and the campers ended up winning this time. Afterwards was chapel where the speaker talked about sin, and how it takes one little action repeated for sin to creep into our lives, and how we need to learn to become aware of those week points, and make sure that God is in them. The final activity o the evening was the night game, fugitive, which takes on quite a different attitude than the other camps, since it is dark when the game is played, the fugitivies must truly be found, and in most cases that is not easy to do, so the campers enjoyed that game greatly, and the challange that it brought them. Then it was back to their cabins for cabin devotions and lights out.

The pathfinders had an awesome day today! They started it out with a tasty breakfast, as all breakfasts are here at CPBC. Then they went to their cabins to pick up and headed off to chapel where they puppets taught them more about God, then they went to the ballfield or the beach for just some fun play time. They played a game in the ballfield, and just had some open swim time at the beach. It was lunch afterwards and then KBAR (Kick Back and Relax) so that they could rest up for their afternoon. After they headed towards the ball field, and since they were a little bit older campers, they got to play the famous whip n 'strip. They had a ton of fun, and each team won once! After the game was Cabin time, and then a two hour free time, the cameprs went around with their cabins to all the different places and activities at camp, it was pretty sweet and the campers had a blast. After their full afternoon they were ready for a tasty spaghetti dinner. The final events of the evening were chapel, the end of the week bonfire where they got to share what they learned with the rest of the camp, and then black lite puppet show, which was just great much to the enjoyment of many people. Then back to their cabins for devos and off to bed.

Cabin time and dinner followed, and then it was time for chapel, where they heard about the story of esther and how brave she was. The bonfire was afterwards, and the sun setting over the lake made this fire quite unique and absolutely beautiful. Then the final event of the evening was the incredible black light puppet show. They then headed off to their cabins to talk about the day and then go to sleep.

it was a great first day for kids kampers because it wasn't too hot to be overwhelming, and it wasn't too cold to be freezing, it was just perfect! The big parts of their day were the time in gym of name/unity games, to get to know eachother as a cabin. And then the orientation rotation, where they took the hay ride tour, and had a chance to swim for a little bit in the warm water at the beach. The only other thing before dinner was cabin time! During CHAOS (Mail Call)Egg Man and Egg boy joined us and two staff members got egged by the campers. Chapel followed and we got to see the first episode of EVERY DAY HEROS! Then it was the night game and since it had started raining we played pin guard in the gym, then the campers headed back to their cabins for lights out, to rest up for their full day tomorrow!
