Summer 2008, Week One--Wilderness Week
These 30 campers explored four habitats, enjoyed a canoe trip down the Brule, did many Environmental Olympics, learned how to build fires and shelters in the woods, played big group games and had free time.  Above all they sang and enjoyed Ruth Wiggins talks about God and nature.  Well done, campers.  You were a great group.  Special thanks to Julie and Laura for volunteering and to Megan and Trevor for programming deluxe.  Special thanks to the four outstanding  counselors--Becky, Jamie, Andy and Andy.
