Junior High Camp

Couple weeks ago I went with the junior high group from church to their summer camp up near Blue Jay, Ca. It was a pretty long trip though we only stopped twice which I think was impressive for junior high bladders.
I think I got a stomach bug just before we left, because I didn't feel well the first 3 days of camp, but I made the best of it and tried to have a good time and be there for the junior highers.
One day we got to go out to the ropes course where they had something called the Centurion which is a tree you climb 100ft up to a platform and jump off trying to grab a trapeze there wasn't enough time for everyone to do it so only a few of the kids that really wanted to had the chance, but there where other elements such as a wall and a zip line which I was able to do. Wednesday we went out to the ocean, for me it was basically the first time I have ever been (parents say it happened when i was like 2) It was lots of fun and very salty lol.One night we had a belly flop contest for the kids, was good times. My group of guys started off weak but redeemed themselves by having two out of the top 4 flops.
All in all it was a great trip that was lots of fun mixed with a great message by our speaker Joel Mayward. The kids had tons of fun yet lots to think about as well.It was a beautiful area, I got to go to the ocean, had tons of fun and I got to be around God in a semi quiet very peaceful place. What more could I ask for?
