All Good Things

I have not seen some of you for three weeks... others it has been even longer... unless you are Scooby or Farmy in which case I saw you either just a few days ago or two seconds ago respectively. How are you all? Camp is slowing down, we've got guest groups most weekends (Let us know if you want to help with them) and plenty of closing down things to do. Did you know that just yesterday I shut down the pools for the winter? The heat is off, Chlorine bobbers are in place, basketball hoops and the diving board are gone. It looks completely different. The lodge has floorspace again, the chapel looks like a chapel from the 70's (which it is by the way). Things are generally quieter.

I hope you all are well. Do keep in touch, we'd love to hear what you are up to as well. And who knows, maybe this year I'll make the blog more of a regular thing... A weekly Phobie adventure at camp... How could that go wrong?


Phobie

Ahhgghhh Camp is coming, CAMP IS COMING!!!!!

The Banquet is done and now we are on the home stretch for the beginning of camp. Five weeks ladies and gentlemen. Five short weeks. Most of you will be finishing school in that time. Are you excited? Are you? Seriously? I know I am. So much to do. Most of the chapel decorations should be arriving this week and then I get to set that up. I think it will look pretty awesome in there this year. But then again, with the theme, how could one go wrong? I’ve got paintball supplies coming in this week and the bikes are getting checked for maximum availability, the night-game is coming along splendidly. Can we say, “Time Gremlin Trivia?” I know I can.

I hope you are all as excited for camp as I am. Good luck in your final month of school, study hard for finals. The Lord be with you until I see you in June... and then I hope he stays with you... Which he will because he never leaves us or forsake us... and I mean “Hope” being in the biblical sense, “If we hope we wait expectantly for it.” It’s a hope based on Christ’s faithfulness... You know what I mean. See you in five.

Summer

Ladies and Gentlemen, it comes in 14 weeks. Summer is fast approaching and I anticipate it with great excitement. I'm really excited for the nightgame this year and a new evening activity we're planning. I'm not sure what movie to do for the drive-in though, any thoughts?

I just got back from the CCCA sectional and I got some great ideas there and I'm really excited for this upcoming summer. Each one seems to get better and I think this one will be no exception. Staff recruiting is going well, we have even had some interviews. We're still low on guy counseling staff, but that is normal, we're looking forward to seeing the Lord provide as always.

Alright, so I'm not a blogger

So it has been a few months since I last updated. I'm still getting used to this. I hope you all are doing well. It was great to see some of you at the reunion in December... well all of you that I saw it was great, I simply meant that I did not see everyone there and so it could not have been great to see them since I did not see them. I did not mean that of those I saw it was only great to see some of them. You know what? Deal with it. I'm glad I got to see some of you.

It is that time again. Time for the spring thaw (maybe, we'll see if this snow goes away), time for flowers to bloom, time for baby animals and time for winter clean-up here at camp. That's been fun. I really enjoy any time they let me run around with a chainsaw. I hope that you all are doing great, we're gearing up for another summer here and it is looking like it will be pretty awesome... alright, incredibly awesome. So drop me a line and let me know how you all are doing, I'm looking forward to seeing you come in for interviews or just visits. Have a great late winter, I'll see you at guest groups.
