we had about 37 little boys during boys camp. it was a very interesting week. different from girls camp but it was a good week. it was Bible Boot Camp and the boys had a lot of fun with it. Cierra taught the Bible study every morning from 9:30-11:30 and a few mornings me and Rebecca helped her because it was just her and about 10 little boys. one of the groups was a handful too. but it was a lot of fun. i definitely want little boys when i have kids. we kindof wandered around during free time each day and i got to pal around with some of the cutest little boys i've ever met. i wasn't sure how involved we were allowed to be during boys camp at first but i'm glad we got to hang out with them because it was a lot of fun.

one of the little boys was autistic. someone was with him at all times and he seemed to really enjoy his week at camp and it was nice because his mom is a single mom raising 5 kids with one being autistic. so three of her kids were here during boys camp so you know she had a relaxing week as well. that's what this camp is all about.

all of the camps that we do (minus one) are done for now and so we have self service teams and them camps that we aren't really involved in for a few weeks.

a self service team just left last night and now we've got a few days off until Thursday when another group comes in. it's called casting for recovery and it's breast cancer survivors that are fly fishing for therapy and recovery. all we'll be doing is cooking and cleaning for them. then next week is camp hope which we aren't really involved with we just cook and clean for them as well. but it's a camp for kids that have been taken out of their home. after that i think a team is coming in to help build some things around the camp but i'm not really sure. then the last week of July will be JAM camp (Jesus-Arts-Music) and a lot of kids from youth camp will be back for that camp so i'm excited to see them again! also, Bart (one of the guys from Georgia) is thinking about coming back up during that week so that'd be really cool if he can.

Also, 4 summer missionaries that are helping a guy named Gary this summer do VBS around Alaska are going to be here running JAM camp. they were here to help us out last week during boys camp, they're a lot of fun.

after JAM camp i think we have another self service team, then the second week of August is Grace Works camp and then the summer is over. time is going by way too quickly here but it's been so much fun and such a blessing so far!
