Day 1 - Camp Findley

Day one; 
We started driving to New York at 11am. We got to our campsite for the night in New York in the afternoon and then we unloaded the vans and set up our cabins that we were sleeping in.  After that we had a campfire and looked for marshmallow sticks in the woods.  We also played some name games to get to know some of the people better that we didn’t know.  My favorite was one where we were tossing balls to each other and had one going forward, one going in reverse and then a cone of water that we had to get to the other person as fast as possible.   Then we made hobo dinners and they were delicious!  We ate our hobo dinners and a few of us practiced for a skit.  After we sang a bunch of campfire songs with Nathan and he played his guitar.  Then we did a skit on all the different gifts that God gives us.  After that Erin and David sculpted us into how we are all connected in STAGE.  After that we roasted marshmallows and some of us went on a walk down to the lake where Tyler fell in.  But don’t worry he’s ok.  Then we came back to our cabins and got ready for bed.  For tomorrow I’m excited to get to Youth Works!
