It was an awesome day for the Senior High 2 Campers! The campers got to sleep in a little bit and instead of the normal 8:15 breakfast, their breakfast started at 8:45! The morning was cabin clean up and chapel. Then it was a practices, which is a senior high exclusive. After chapel each day they go to one of four practices and learn about things that we can do as christians to foster the community around us. Then it was personal devo time followed by cabin time. Lunch and KBAR were followed by an extreme game of WHIP N' STRIP! then the rest of the afternoon was free time. a 6:00 dinner was followed by some chill time and then the much anticipated POWDER PUFF GAME! Much to the campers delight...they won. But it was a great game, and both teams played very well! Chapel was next followed by a very hard core game of FUGITIVE! Oh yes, the campers searched high and low for the escaped fugitives (staff) through the dark camp ground. Then it was back to cabins for devos and lights out.

what a great day for the junior highers! The morning started out the same as the other days this week except the big game was in the morning. We played Ultimate Frisbee Golf Bonanza! After Lunch (where there was some serious Pack Pride going on) and some rest time the campers got prepared for the Pack Attack! Then...2:30 Rolled around, and it was ON! The campers and staff got SO into it as the Packs Attacked! The Black Pack won, but all of the Packs had such a blast! The rest of the afternoon was free time, and then it was dinner. During CHAOS they had one last visit from Egg man, and then they had one more long cabin time. It was so fun for the cabins to hang out together after spending the week playing, growing, and learning together! Then it was time for the final evening chapel. All of the verses were reviewed, we heard a staff testimony, and then the speaker told us about David and the courage it took to figh Goliath, but How God was with him the whole time. Then we closed out the evening with the bonfire, and the campers had the opportunity to share with us what they learned through the week, and the resolutions they made for when they got back home. Then off to their cabins for one last cabin devos, and some rest for the ride home tomorrow.

The day started out kind of chilly today and so most people were wearing sweatshirts or long sleeves to breakfast. However, after the campers cleaned their cabins and went to chapel and had some personal devo times it had cleared up and warmed up a good deal and it was a beautiful day for skills time! After skills time the campers gathered at the playground for beach bash let in. After a cook out lunch it was KBAR and then pack play. The packs had their final opportunity to prepare for tomorrow's Pack Attack, so they polished off their cheers, assigned stations, and pumped up the pack spirit! Then it was beach bash time. The Aqua 5 (lifeguards) rode in on the red shark and then sent the cabins off to train to become heros! The rest of the afternoon was free time followed by dinner and CHAOS (mail call) Chapel was next and the speaker talked about suiting up for life and following GOd's lead no matter what the cost. The night game was go for the gusto and from there the campers went into Oak Ridge for the drama, which talked about the revolutionary Love of Jesus.

What a wonderful day it was here at CPBC! The campers had basically the same morning as yesterday with the only difference being cabin time at 11:15 instead of skills time. After lunch and KBAR it was pack play again! The campers are really getting some pack pride, which will make for an exciting pack attack on friday. The big game today was Guerilla Warfare, which the campers enjoy greatly because instead of running around in the ballfield, they get to run through the woods in search of the general to win points for their cabin. The rest of the afternoon was free time and then it was a tasty pasta dinner! During CHAOS (mail call) Deal or no Deal was back by popular demand. Afterwards was connect and then an evening game of find the fire. Chapel was the final event of the evening and through staff testimony and the speaker's talk the campers were informed of just who precious God thinks we are, and how much he gave up for us through his son so that we could be called his children.

It was a beautiful first day for JH3. The sun was out, and it was warm, but we were blessed with a nice breeze to keep us from over heating. The day started out with the most important meal of the day, which today happened to be breakfast sandwitches, and some really yummy plums! Then it was cabin clean up. Each day the campers clean up their cabins, both for general cleanliness reasons, and for points on the point board, the cabins that are the cleanest and maybe add a little bit of a creative element to their cleaning get points for their cabin which can potentially win them something at the end of the week. Then they went to chapel and had a great time worshipping, leaning a new bible verse, and watching the always funny skit for the day. From there they went to do some personal devotion time. Which is a time for campers to spend one on one with God before the wonderful craziness of the day starts. The final activity of the day before lunch was skills time. The campers were assigned to areas of camp to participate in a new skill or sharpen their already existing skills in concentrated areas. For example, archery, diving, soccer, card making, etc. After lunch was an hour of KBAR and then it was the first pack play of the week. Pack Play is a new activity this year. The cabins are split up into five different 'packs' and each pack has a color, and they spend time together each day hanging out with the three other cabins in their pack, and they make up a cheer, and play some awesome games, and then at the end of the week, on friday, we have the pack attack, which is a big relay race all through camp where the packs compete against eachother. The big game for the day was whip n' strip...a classic, and the campers had so much fun playing the game hard core. The rest of the afternoon was free time, and then it was off to dinner to fuel our bodies after such a busy afternoon. During CHAOS (or, mail call) the campers got a little bit messy. They played games such as Egg Man, yes, the camp legend; and Mystery Bucket. Then there was some connect time, which is like the after dinner KBAR but only for a half hour. And then it was off to chapel for worship, verse review, staff testimony, and speaker. The speaker talked about samson tonight, and how samson's strength really wasn't from his hair, but from God. The night game was fugitive, and then it was back to the cabin for devotions and some good sleep!

WOO HOO TB3 Friday! The campers morning was same as the last three days, but the campers loved every minute of it.From breakfast to cabin clean up and chapel (where Marvin the woodpecker showed up!) Skills time was during the morning, and it was such a perfect day for all of the skils classes to take place! Lunch and then it was KBAR followed by the last cabin time, which the campers had a blast with, and then it was the Big Game, SAFARI! The campers seriously enjoyed chasing the staff turned wild animals around camp to capture them and gain points for their cabin. All of the free time options were busy today in the last two hours before dinner. CHAOS had another visit from Egg Man, and then it was a little bit of connect time which led into staff skit show. The campers had a blast seeing their favorite couselors in some crazy skits, some messy ones, and some cleaner, yet very amusing ones! They headed straight up to chapel from there! There was some high energy worship at chapel tonight! The end of the week bonfire followed, and it took place in the ampitheatre. The campers had the opportunity to share with everybody all of the things that they learned through the week! It was made clear that God moved in the hearts of the campers this week.

The day started out as kind of rainy, but that didn't get us down! The morning went on as usual, and instead of skills time this morning we had rainy day activity time. The campers got split into four groups and went to different buildings in camp for different fun and exciting rainy day actities. Then it was lunch and though lunch wasn't oustide, we still had some fun beach bash style let in. After KBAR there was some cabin time, and even though the sky was still over cast all of the planned activities went on for cabin time. The beach bash today was a sweet game of tube mania! Free time was followed by dinner which was followed by CHAOS which consisted of a new mail call game. Connect time led into Chapel and the campers had a blast worshipng and going over all the verses. The big game was relocated to the gym because of the very muddy condition of the ball field. And then the final event of the evening was the drama which shared with the campers about how much Jesus Truly does love us and the many different ways that he shows his love.

Seriously, God has liked beautiful weather this week! It was another perfect day here at CPBC. Today during skills the campers got new skill classes to partake in, and they enjoyed experiencing a new part of camp! Lunch and KBAR were followed by cabin time and then a new game. The name of the game you my ask...Don't Get the Counelor Wet! Each cabin had to protect their counselor from the impeeding water with cardboard and whatever else they chould come up with to create a shiled for their counselor. It was a hit with the campers on this warm day! The rest of the day was free time and then dinner and chaos. During Chaos another lucky camper got to partake in Deal or No Deal, and ended up making a deal and winning a popcorn party and a free item from the canteen! After connect was the final event of the evening which was chapel and the campers heard about the salvation that Jesus Christ offers us through his death on the Cross and his resurrection!

God certianly blessed us with a beautiful tuesday for TB3. It was warm and sunny and the sky was a beautiful blue. The day started off with a great french toast sticks breakfast, and from there headed into a daily morning here at covenant pines. Cabin clean up, chapel, and personal devotions. Skill time was the last activity of the morning. Skill time is a chance for the campers to get assinged to groups where they can learn new skills such as archery, soccer, and diving among many other things, or where they can improve on a skill that they already have. Lunch and KBAR energized the campers for the afternoon when they had cabin time followed by a big game, which was WHIP n' STRIP! All time favorite camp game for many many people. The rest of the afternoon was free time, and since it was such a beautiful day all of the options were open to the campers. They had so much fun exploring camp and all of the posibilities available to them during free time. After dinner was CHAOS which here at camp is really Mail call. During this time the campers play some fun games that usually end up with a staff member being pretty messy. The two games tonight were egg man (a camp legend) and honey face (a new one!) After dinner it was connect time, which is just some down time between dinner and chapel for the campers to hang out with eachother outside of their cabins. Then it was chapel where we had some worship and verse review, and a staff testimony which was about being yourself and being ok with that! Afterwards it was the game, which was FUGIIVE! The campers had so much fun finding crazy characters and bringing them back to the 'jail' to get points for their cabins. Then it was back to cabins for cabin devotions, which is a wrap up of the day, and then off to bed to rest for the day ahead.

Plethora

Alrighty, here's the Deal, Junior High 2 was sweet! Even though it rained today it ended on a great note. After an incredible last night, with the most amazing hallelujah EVER, the morning came with lots of energy. Flag raising and breakfast were great, and then the campers did their part to clean up camp. All of the cabins were assigned different areas of camp to clean up, and now camp looks excellent. Then they headed back to their cabins to pack up and get ready to head home. The big event of the day was chapel. It was a wrap up time for everything that had happened this week. There was some great worship time, and then the wrap up of the skits where Duct Tape Deon and Matt went through some pretty big changes since friday. we learned a final verse and the speaker wraped up the week in an awesome encouraging way for the campers. Then it was lunch time and the campers headed home after a send off blessing from the staff. Get ready to welcome your camper home and hear some awesome stories from them!
